Table 10 Pearson correlation coefficient for metals in soil to fruit and water to fruit samples

From: Assessment of selected nutrients and toxic metals in fruits, soils and irrigation waters of Awara Melka and Nura Era farms, Ethiopia

Metal	Na	K	Ca	Mg	Fe	Cu	Zn	Mn
r_soil-fruit	−0.963	−0.547	−0.676	0.574	0.499	−0.759	0.0058	0.923
r_{water-to-fruit}	−0.248	−0.754	−0.275	0.265	−0.593	0.532	−0.968	0.704

r_soil-fruit and r_water-fruit are the Pearson correlation coefficients between metal level in soil and fruit and between metal level in water and fruit, respectively
