Trace Elements in Soils and Plants

By Alina Kabata-Pendias and Henryk Pendias

Reflecting the explosion of research in trace elements and their role in the soil-plant system, this fourth edition of a bestseller discusses the biogeochemistry of trace elements and their influence in food quality. It discusses the assessment of natural trace element content in soil, bioindication of the chemical status of environmental compartments, soil remediation, and the hyperaccumulation and phytoextraction of trace minerals from the soil. The revised Table of Contents reflects the IUPAC's recommendation for numbering element groups, giving this new edition an up-to-date organizational style.
