Abstract

SUMMARY: Heavy metai uptake, accumulation and tolerance were investigated in five British populations of the metallophyte Thlaspi caerulescens from metalliferous sites from the north and south Pennines orefields. Analysis of field samples showed mean shoot Zn, Pb and Cd concentrations of up to 21000, 660 and 164/zMug g‐1 respectively. A solution culture experiment designed to investigate both tolerance and metal accumulation is reported. Indices of tolerance of five populations to 12 metals (Ag, Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Zn) showed few population differences but unexpectedly high tolerance to metals not present at elevated concentrations in the parent soils. This was paralleled by exceptionally high uptakes of all metals studied. Zn, Cd, Co, Mn and Ni were readily transported to the shoot whereas Al, Cr Cu, Fe and Pb were predominantly immobilized in the roots. The data suggest common mechanisms of absorption and transport of several metals in this species.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
