Distribution and Redistribution of <sup>109</sup>Cd and <sup>65</sup>Zn in the Heavy Metal Hyperaccumulator <i>Solanum nigrum</i> L.: Influence of Cadmium and Zinc Concentrations in the Root Medium

Heavy metal redistribution is relevant for the quality of edible crops and the suitability of hyperaccumulators for bioremediation. Root-to-shoot transfer via the xylem and redistribution in the aerial parts via the phloem differ between various heavy metals. In general, cadmium is more slowly relea...
