Mercury Accumulation in Commercial Varieties of <i>Oryza sativa</i> L. Cultivated in Soils of La Mojana Region, Colombia
The Hg accumulation in different commercial varieties of <i>Oryza</i><i>sativa</i> L. was evaluated in the region of La Mojana, Colombia, where rice cultivation has become the staple food of the population living in this area. The varieties studied were Fedearroz-473 (FA473),...
