Grasses as well as other plant species growing on metal contaminated soil have been selected for metal resistance for a long time. An increase in heavy metals like Zn, Pb and Cd in soil caused changes in root morphology and physiology as well as the tolerance of different plant species. The uptake and transport of zinc in plants is higher in older plants parts, like old or dead leaves, than in younger parts. There were measured the zinc resistance of the grass and bioaccurnularion in different parts of grasses.}, type={Komunikat}, title={The Zinc Resistance of the Grass (Agrostis Capillaris) Growing on Surrounding of Zn-Smelter at Bukowno Area}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/123751/PDF-MASTER/15_AE_VOL_29_3_2003_Kicinska_Tolerancja.pdf}, keywords={zinc, grass, Agrostis capillaris, bioaccumulation, zinc resistance}, }
