Trace and Ultratrace Elements in Plants and Soil

Download or read book Trace and Ultratrace Elements in Plants and Soil written by I. Shtangeeva and published by WIT Press (UK). This book was released on 2005 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Containing articles written by 17 scientists from 10 countries, this book describes different aspects of analytical chemistry, rhizosphere chemistry and the environmental chemistry of trace elements. It also highlights areas where collaboration between biochemists, soil scientists, analytical chemists and plant physiologists would be most productive." "The contributors focus on the current state of our knowledge and future potential for understanding the biogeochemistry of both well-known toxic elements and rare ultratrace elements of unknown biological role. Since the environmental chemistry of trace elements is controlled by a number of different interacting processes, there are also detailed reviews of the biology and chemistry of the rhizosphere, factors affecting the bioavailability of different trace elements in soil, potential phytoremediation methodologies and other applications."--Résumé de l'éditeur.
