Schematic summary of Cd accumulation experiments. A) Cd accumulation in leaves is due solely to the genetic makeup of the varieties and is not linked to any soil composition; B) Gene expression in leaves correlates with the pattern described in A (either gene expression is higher ([left part of square box] or lower [right part of square box] in V5 than in V21); C) Interaction effects in the roots show a dependence on both genetic makeup and soil composition.
