We used the multitracer technique to study the transfer of several radionuclides to two mushroom species. Radionuclides accumulated in the fruiting bodies of the mushrooms in the order of 83Rb > 65Zn > 54Mn > 22Na > 75Se and 85Sr > 60Co > 88Y, 102Rh, 139Ce, 143.144Pm, 146.153Gd and 173Lu > 175Hf. The concentration ratio values for 83Rb, 65Zn and 54Mn in the fruiting bodies were more than 10, whereas those for 60Co, 88Y, 102Rh, 121mTe, 175Hf and the rare earth elements were less than 1. There were major differences in the accumulations of the alkali elements.
