CONCLUSIONS
Cadmium in low concentrations most likely is a normal constituent
of all plant tissues. The concentration in the tissue is determined
by the inherent ability of a plant species to absorb cadmiumCADMIUM IN PLANTS G25
and by the cadmium concentration in the environment. At low
levels of cadmium in soils, differences in cadmium content among
plant species commonly are greater than differences in amounts
of cadmium in the soils where the plants grew. Beyond certain
background amounts of cadmium in soils, the cadmium content of
plant tissue tends to increase with increased concentrations of
cadmium in the soil.
Airborne cadmium, originating in emissions from the combustion
of hydrocarbons or from certain industrial processes, may
enter the soils and be absorbed by plants, or may be deposited on
the surface of plants in particulate matter, until very high levels
of cadmium are accumulated by the plant. There appears to be no
natural means by which cadmium is eliminated from plant tissue,
and no cultural practice has been found effective in reducing or
preventing the absorption of cadmium by plants
