The effects of different hydroponic conditions (such as concentration of thorium (Th), pH, carbonate, phosphate, organic acids, and cations) on thorium uptake by Brassica juncea var. foliosa were evaluated. The results showed that acidic cultivation solutions enhanced thorium accumulation in the plants. Phosphate and carbonate inhibited thorium accumulation in plants, possibly due to the formation of Th(HPO₄)²⁺, Th(HPO₄)₂, or Th(OH)₃CO₃⁻with Th⁴⁺, which was disadvantageous for thorium uptake in the plants. Organic aids (citric acid, oxalic acid, lactic acid) inhibited thorium accumulation in roots and increased thorium content in the shoots, which suggested that the thorium-organic complexes did not remain in the roots and were beneficial for thorium transfer from the roots to the shoots. Among three cations (such as calcium ion (Ca²⁺), ferrous ion (Fe²⁺), and zinc ion (Zn²⁺)) in hydroponic media, Zn²⁺had no significant influence on thorium accumulation in the roots, Fe²⁺inhibited thorium accumulation in the roots, and Ca²⁺was found to facilitate thorium accumulation in the roots to a certain extent. This research will help to further understand the mechanism of thorium uptake in plants.
