Plant uptake and translocation of highly weathered, soil-bound technical chlordane residues: Data from field and rhizotron studies

It has been observed that plants are susceptible to uptake from soil and in planta transport of technical chlordane, in spite of its hydrophobicity and sequestration within the soil matrix due to weathering. Field and rhizotron studies were conducted with Cucurbitaceae planted in highly weathered, c...

Zusammenfassung:It has been observed that plants are susceptible to uptake from soil and in planta transport of technical chlordane, in spite of its hydrophobicity and sequestration within the soil matrix due to weathering. Field and rhizotron studies were conducted with Cucurbitaceae planted in highly weathered, chlordane‐contaminated soil to investigate details of soil‐to‐plant contaminant uptake. In the field‐work, Cucurbita pepo L. (zucchini) was grown in soil at four levels of chlordane contamination: Clean (
