Abstract
It is established that the content of lanthanum and neodymium accumulated in plant roots is several times higher than their content in the top mass. Rare-earth elements are most actively accumulated in pea roots. With respect to the coefficients of biological absorption, lanthanum and neodymium are characterized by low and middle level of absorption in the top mass of corn and pea.
