Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Leaning poplar had significantly lower height and basal diameter growth than upright poplar.
- Association Cd concentrations across poplar parts increased with soil Cd.
- Observation Cd concentrations generally ranked bark, leaf, root, then stem.
- Observation Poplar parts had average BCF values from 0.08 to 2.36.
- Observation Poplar parts had average TF values from 0.67 to 7.92.
- Observation Leaning poplar had higher average Cd concentration, BCF and TF than upright poplar, without a significant difference.
- Observation Tension-zone stem wood in leaning poplar had significantly higher Cd than the opposite zone.
