Abstract

The present study was conducted to explore the spatial variation in mineral composition of medicinal plant puncture vine (Tribulus terrestris) commonly called as Bhakra collected from different sites of tehsil Silanwali. The results of the study showed that maximum magnesium, zinc, iron, chromium concentration was noted in puncture vine collected from near Chak NO. 126SB (S1) while the maximum manganese and potassium concentration was observed in puncture vine collected from near Chak No. 126NB (S2). However, variation in mineral composition was present in puncture vine collected from different sites which may be attributed to different factors such as spatial variation, soil composition, and availability of nutrients in the soil.
