Canola takes up more cadmium and phosphorus from soil than spring wheat
2005
Brennan, R.F. | Bolland, M.D.A.
Different sources of phosphorus (P) fertilizer (triple superphosphate and phosphate rocks) with different concentrations of cadmium (Cd) as an impurity were applied in different amounts to plots in a field experiment to produce soil with different concentrations of Cd. The plots were sown to canola (rape, Brassica napus L.) and spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). For each amount of Cd applied, the concentration of Cd in canola grain was about three times that in wheat grain. The concentration of P in canola grain was consistently about double that in wheat grain. Canola used all sources of P more effectively than wheat to produce dried shoots and grain.
