Trace Element Uptake by Herbaceous Plants from the Soils at a Multiple Trace Element-Contaminated Site

Urban Farm DB summary

This study investigated trace element uptake by wild herbaceous plants at a multiple trace element-contaminated site. It found significant variability in bioaccumulation and translocation factors among plant species, identifying some as hyperaccumulators for specific elements. The marked accumulation of trace elements in plant tissues suggests that the site may not be suitable for urban agricultural production.
