Abstract excerpt

Heterozygous tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum var. xanthi) plants were cultivated in soil from a dump site highly polluted with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) at Lhenice in South Bohemia, Czech Republic. The total amount of PCBs in the polluted soil, measured by gas chromatography varied from 165 to 265mgkg(-1) of soil. In tobacco plants cultivated for 8 weeks in the polluted soil the amount of PCB in the leaves...
