Evaluation of vetiver grass for radiocesium absorption ability
Agriculture and Natural Resources, 2017 Abstract Plantlets of the Surat Thani and Ratchaburi ecotypes of vetiver grass (Chrysopogon zizanioides L. (Roberty). were hydroponically cultured in 134Cs solutions to investigate their 134Cs uptake ability. After 5 d of culture in 134Cs solutions, the Surat Thani plantlets were still fresh and healthy without any evidence of toxicity symptoms ...
