    Abstract:

    The absorption and accumulation of 133Cs and 88Sr in four plant species,such as Sudan grass (Sorghum sudanense),sunflower (Helianthus annuus),radish (Raphanus sativus L.) and leaf mustard (Brassica juncea) in different 133Cs and 88Sr concentration contaminated soils (0,2.5,5.0,10.0,20.0,40.0 mg/kg)was studied and their phytoremediation efficiency was compared.The result showed that:(1)The biomass order of the individual plant in different 133Cs and 88Sr concentration contaminated soil ranked as:sunflower>radish>leaf mustard>Sudan grass,the order of 133Cs absorption capacity of the root from the soils:radish>Sudan grass>sunflower>leaf mustard,the total concentration of 133Cs and 88Sr individual plant ranked:sunflower>radish>Sudan grass>leaf mustard and radish,sunflower>Sudan grass>leaf mustard,respectively.Four plant species revealed stronger 88Sr absorption capacities than that of 133Cs.(2)The bioaccumulation factor (BCF) of radish was greater than 1 in different treatments except in the 10.0 mg/kg 133Cs treatment and it performed stronger 133Cs bioaccumulation ability.The translocation factors (TF) of four plant species in different treatments were less than 1 except in the 5.0 mg/kg 133Cs treatment.The translocation ability of 88Sr from the roots up to the upper ground part of the radish was relatively higher than that of other three species.Leaf mustard and sunflower ranked the second.(3)The translocation ability of 88Sr from the roots up to the upper ground part of the plants was stronger than that of 133Cs in four plant species.The result revealed that the plant species of the highest phytoremediation efficiency was sunflower and the second radish.They had stronger phytoextraction ability from 133Cs and 88Sr contaminated soil because of their advantages in the highest individual plant biomass of sunflower and the more 133Cs and 88Sr uptake capacity of radish,respectively.
