Abstract
Spergularia rubra (L.) J. Presl & C. Presl has a mycorrhizal resistance that leads to increased uranium uptake. The results show that 35% of the 238U is retained in the carbonate fraction and 59% in the residual or non-reactive fraction. 226Ra shows a different pattern with an average association of 19% in the organic matter fraction, 10% in the carbonate compounds and the remaining 71% in the residual fraction. The relationships between the activity concentrations of 238U and 226Ra in the soil fractions and in Spergularia were found to be statistically representative of the carbonate and organic matter fractions, respectively.
