Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation In canola, metals were preferentially accumulated in roots rather than shoots, in the order Pb > Ni > Cd.
- Observation In barley, metals were preferentially accumulated in roots rather than shoots, in the order Ni > Pb > Cd.
- Intervention effect Macronutrient uptake of barley decreased with increasing metal concentrations, at a higher rate than in canola.
- Observation Symptoms of Cd, Pb and Ni phytotoxicity were observed in both plant species at the more concentrated metal treatments.
