Abstract excerpt
Climate-related flooding poses a potential challenge to phytoremediation of metal polluted areas. In the present study, uptake, translocation and accumulation of heavy metals (Cd, Zn and Cu), and their phytoavailability in six flood-tolerant Salix genotypes were investigated under simulated seasonal flooding conditions (non-flooding conditions were kept as the control). Plants were cultivated in a greenhouse with...
