Abstract

In field trials it was demonstrated that the application of boron, cobalt, copper, manganese, and zinc in amounts of 110, 48, 660, 480, and 300 kg/ha, respectively has no detrimental effects on yield of radish (Raphanus sativus var. radioula DC) and bush bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). The amounts of these elements in soil and in several parts of the plants are increased significantly. It is demonstrated, however, that the amounts applied in these experiments seem not to be the maximum amounts which can be tolerated by the plants studied, taking yield and concentration of the elements used in this study as the only criteria. From the contents of these metals found in the edible parts of the plants no harmful effects on man might be expected even after application of high doses. 5 references, 5 tables.
