Popis: The lethal dose of P32 and Sr90 for wheat, barley, and sunflower seeds is approximately 1.4 microcuries per seed (0.05 rd.). Radioautographs indicate that at five weeks' growth the distribution of phosphorus in a wheat plant is fairly uniform whereas that of strontium is very uneven, practically all the strontium being concentrated in the first two leaves.
