Influence of Chloride Salinity on Cadmium uptake by Nicotiana tabacum in a Rhizofiltration System

A hydroponic trial was conducted to study the effect of chloride salinity in simulated effluent on Cd accumulation by tobacco. Leaf surface area (LSA) and root surface area (RSA) measurements were incorporated as possible determinants of Cd uptake rate by plants. Results showed that individual plant...
