The key features concern radionuclide toxicity in plants, how the radioactive materials are absorbed by plants, and how the plants cope with the toxic responses. The respective chapters examine soil classification, natural plant selection, speciation of actinides, kinetic modeling, and case studies on cesium uptake after radiation accidents. Radionuclide contaminants pose serious problems for biological systems, due to their chemical toxicity and radiological effects. The processes by which radionuclides can be incorporated into vegetation can either originate from activity interception by external plant surfaces (either directly from the atmosphere or from resuspended material), or through uptake of radionuclides via the root system. Subsequent transfer of toxic elements to the human food chain is a concrete danger. Therefore, the molecular mechanisms and genetic basis of transport into and within plants needs to be understood for two reasons: The effectiveness of radionuclide uptake into crop plants ? so-called transfer coefficient ? is a prerequisite for the calculation of dose due to the food path. On the other hand, efficient radionuclide transfer into plants can be made use of for decontamination of land ? so-called phytoremediation, the direct use of living, green plants for in situ removal of pollutants from the environment or to reduce their concentrations to harmless levels. 606 $aBotanical chemistry 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aEnvironmental toxicology 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aPollution 606 $aPlant Biochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L14021 606 $aEnvironmental Management$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U17009 606 $aEcotoxicology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U25001 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 606 $aTerrestrial Pollution$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35030 615 0$aBotanical chemistry. 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aEnvironmental toxicology. 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aPollution. 615 14$aPlant Biochemistry. 615 24$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aEcotoxicology. 615 24$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aTerrestrial Pollution. 676 $a333.7 676 $a363.73 676 $a570 676 $a571.2 702 $aGupta$b Dharmendra Kumar$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aWalther$b Clemens$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298347003321 996 $aRadionuclide Contamination and Remediation Through Plants$92536218 997 $aUNINA
