Strategies and methods for studying the rhizosphere—the plant science toolbox (2009, background): “Depending on its thickness, the soil can be either considered as whole rhizosphere (ie when the layer is 1 to 3 mm thick, e.g. Chaignon and Hinsinger 2003) or used after cutting it with a razor blade or a freeze microtome parallel to the root mat, in order to measure rhizosphere gradients (e.g.…”
PHYTOREMEDIATION: THE APPLICATION OF VERMICOMPOST TO REMOVE ZINC, CADMIUM, COPPER, NICKEL AND LEAD BY SUNFLOWER PLANT (2008, unknown): “According to Chaignon and Hinsinger (2003), higher concentrations of copper can inhibit root growth before shoot growth and can accumulate in the roots without any significant increase in its content of the aerial parts.”
Copper uptake and phytotoxicity as assessed in situ for durum wheat (Triticum turgidum durum L.) cultivated in Cu-contaminated, former vineyard soils (2007, background): “As stressed in former studies, root Cu concentration was by far more sensitive to soil Cu contamination and thus appeared as a better indicator of Cu contamination than shoot Cu concentration presumably due to efficient control of Cu translocation from roots to shoots (Brun et al. 2001; McBride 2001”
