Brassinosteroids mitigate cadmium toxicity in cowpea plants (2018, methodology): “Bioconcentration and translocation factors: The bioconcentration factor (BCF) was calculated by the equation BCF = Cdpt/Cdns as described by Yoon et al. (2006), where Cdpt represents the concentration of Cd in plant tissue and Cdns represents the Cd concentration in the nutritive solution.”
Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) and Translocation Factor (TF) of Heavy Metals in Mangrove Trees of Blanakan Fish Farm (2017, background): “Sometimes, the roots can prevent the transport of non-essential metals, so metals accumulate in the roots [16].”
Heavy metal detoxification and tolerance mechanisms in plants: Implications for phytoremediation (2016, background): “Plants can immobilize heavy metals in soils through 181 sorption by roots, precipitation, complexation or metal valence reduction in the rhizosphere 182 (Barcelo and Poschenrieder 2003; Ghosh and Singh 2005; Yoon et al. 2006; Wuana and 183 Okieimen 2011).”
