Abstract: 3 tables. 6 figures. ["The rhizinae and medulla play a significant role in metal accumulation and translocation, especially at higher metal concentrations when metal uptake capacity of the upper thallial surface is reduced. The observed competitive metal uptake sequences by the rhizinae and thalli with rhizinae removed were consistent with an ion-exchange process modified by a metal complex formation."]
