Radiotracer studies on the role of root exudates in uptake of Cr(III) and Cd by plants

Description

Column chromatographic and electrophoretic experiment to investigate the modification of chromium-III and cadmium metal species in root environment of the plant maize (Z. Mays), particularly, by organic acid present in root exudates have been conducted. It was found that a significant part of Cr(III) and Cd gets organically bound. Attempts have also been made to study the nature of (root exudate-metal) complexes in each case. (author). 10 refs
