Ion Uptake by Living Plant Roots.
By taking daily autoradiographs of a uniformly labeled soil in which plants are growing, patterns of actual ion uptake from the soil can be established. This technique can be used to study such influences on ion uptake as that of plant species ion diffusion, moisture and temperature stresses, and different physical, chemical, and biological properties of the soil.
