Move factors (TF) of 134Cs to olive and citrus trees developed on two unique, still up in the air for a 3-year nursery analyze. Two-year-old trees were relocated with their whole rootball into huge pots containing the debased soil (110 kg pot-1).The dirt was moved to each pot in layers on the highest point of which 134Cs as CsCl was trickled (18.5 MBq pot-1). For both evergreen trees, soil type fundamentally affected radiocaesium move. 134Cs focus was lower for the calcareous-weighty soil than for the corrosive light soil. Move elements of orange trees were higher than those of olive trees in the corrosive light soil. Albeit a lot of 134Cs was estimated in olives developed on the corrosive light soil, no 134Cs was identified in the natural olive oil when an oil part (5% f.w.) was removed.

Going against the norm the eatable piece of the oranges showed the most elevated 134Cs centralization of all plant parts. The connection between 134Cs take-up and potassium content in the different plant compartments was likewise concentrated on when chosen trees were chopped down. The potassium fixation in the plants was not fundamentally unique between the trees filling in the two kinds of soil despite the enormous contrasts during the 134Cs take-up in the two soils. TF values and potassium content in the different plant compartments of each tree were exceptionally associated. For the two yields move factors as well as potassium content were the most elevated in the creating plant parts (new leaves and branches, blossoms). The exchange variables of 134Cs for the concentrated on trees are in similar significant degree as the upsides of yearly yields developed under comparable circumstances.
