Abstract
A detailed investigation has been carried out to determine, through tissue analysis, the nutritional status of 55 plant species of the Egyptian wild flora collected from the desert area of Burg El-Arab, west of Alexandria. The data obtained resulted in classifying the different species into 17 groups, each being specifically rich in a given element. The relationship between the level of elements and the kind of habitats has also been discussed.
