There are also reports of the interaction
between Cu and Zn in soils showing an increase in the concentrations
of both elements as well as increased soil organic matter (Girotto
et al., 2013). However, so far to our knowledge, studies on the interaction
between Cu and Zn in sandy vineyards soils are still scarce. Therefore,
this greenhouse study aimed to assess whether the increase in
Zn concentration in vineyard soils with high Cu concentration from
Southern Brazil may cause additional toxicity to maize plants. The
final aim was to understand the feasibility of the use of successive
