Notes:
Abstract Soil Cd addition was found to adversely affect germination ofAndropogon scoparius, Monarda fistulosa, andRudbeckia hirta. Rudbeckia germination was found to be most sensitive to soil Cd addition andAndropogon germination most tolerant (b=−.0001). Soil cadmium concentrations sufficient to reduce germination by 25% were calculated to be 30 and 46 μg Cd/g soil forRudbeckia andAndropogon respectively.
