Subproject - Glasshouse experiments | Investigation of the plant uptake of molybdenum and vanadium from contaminated soils of the Krappfeld with special consideration of accumulation-determining factors

The aim of the subproject is to record the uptake of heavy metals (Mo, V) by selected crops from soils with potential contamination under standardized conditions in the glasshouse. As part of the above-mentioned project, several crops: radish, barley, soybean, maize, forage grass and vegetables, are grown in greenhouse experiments on several soils taken from the Krappfeld (Carinthia) in comparison to a soil from the Tulln site. The plant samples are subsequently analyzed by the project partners for their heavy metal content.
