Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation Zhongzhu No. 3 gave the best yield performance, with a fresh bast weight of about 343 g in a medium Cd-contaminated paddy field.
- Observation Leaves accounted for the largest biomass among the ramie organs investigated.
- Observation Phloem had the highest Cd concentration among ramie organs.
- Mechanism Low Cd accumulation and reasonable Cd allocation enhanced the resistance of ramie to Cd.
- Observation All ramie varieties removed more than 90% of Cd during fiber stripping.
- Observation Cd concentration in ramie fiber was significantly lower than the fiber-industry standard.
