Effects of source and placement of phosphorus on concentration of cadmium in the grain of two durum wheat cultivars
2003-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Cadmium is toxic to humans. Because it enters the food chain through plant uptake, application of phosphorus fertilizer carrying Cd as an impurity may increase the Cd concentration of cereal grains above proposed threshold values. Field experiments were conducted to determine the effect of two phosphorus fertilizers on Cd concentration of two durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum) cultivars, a low Cd accumu...
