Uptake and assimilation of ammonium ions by cucumber seedlings from solutions with different pH and addition of heavy metals

Influence of Cu2+, Cd2+, Pb2+ and Fe2+ in various pH conditions (5.0, 6.0, 7.0) on the uptake and assimilation of NH4+ by cucumber seedlings was estimated. Every metal in different pH of uptake solution distinctly reduced ammonium absorption calculated from NH4+ depletion. Copper and ferric ions, bu...
