Mineral Materials as a Neutralizing Agent Used on Soil Contaminated with Copper

The aim of the investigation was to evaluate the response of plants, using black mustard (<i>Brassica nigra</i> L. Koch) as a model plant, to soil contamination with copper (0, 200, 400, 600 mg Cu kg<sup>−1</sup> of soil), and to determine the effectiveness of the Cu immobili...
