- Title
Radiosensitivity of Salt Uptake in Plants.
- Authors
BARBER, D. A.; NEARY, G. J.; RUSSELL, R. SCOTT
- Abstract
SOME investigations1 of the effects of radioisotopes absorbed by plants have suggested that the mechanism of salt uptake is sensitive to low doses of ionizing radiations. It is impossible, however, in such experiments to make precise estimates of the dose to which the tissues are exposed. This uncertainty can be overcome by exposing plants to external sources of radiation.
