Abstract

The use of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae when growing cucumbers in both the pot and field experiments shows the lack of a stimulating effect on the plant biomass as well as on the level of radioactive cesium uptake by plants. Fruits, leaves, stems and shoots of cucumber that grow on soil with granulometric composition (loamy sand, loamy and silty clay) infected with spores of arbuscular fungus had the similar or even lower radionuclide activity concentration and under the same or lower transfer factors of 137Cs (TF) than those grown on control treatment in both experiments. It is shown that 137Cs TF of cucumber plants do not depend on the intensity of mycorrhizal infection of additional and lateral roots of plants.
