Abstract: | Significantly higher contents of mercury were found in fungi growing in the vicinity of a large Finnish chlor-alkali plant than in a control area. The highest concentrations (72–200 ppm dry wt) were found in -species. The mercury contents in mycorrhizal fungi did not generally exceed the Finnish safety limit of 0.8 ppm. |
