Roots of plants cultivated in the polymer\u2010amended soil had a concentration of copper that was 73% of that in plants from the unamended soil.

Soil enzymatic activities at the end of the experiment were correlated with plant growth and copper concentration of plants grown in soils with different levels of copper, which were achieved by mixing the contaminated soil with varying proportions of a soil of low copper content. Shoot dry weight was positively correlated with acid phosphatase, \u03b2\u2010glucosidase, \u03b2\u2010galactosidase and urease, whereas copper concentration in the roots of the annual medic was negatively correlated with acid phosphatase, \u03b2\u2010galactosidase, cellulase and urease.
