Abstract: The present work is devoted to an investigation on the soil to mushroom transfer parameters for ¹³⁷Cs and ⁴⁰K radionuclides, as well as for some stable elements and heavy metals. The results of transfer factors for ¹³⁷Cs and ⁴⁰K were within the range of 0.06–3.15 and 0.67–5.68, respectively and the most efficiently transferred radionuclide was ⁴⁰K. The TF values for ¹³⁷Cs typically conformed to a lognormal distribution, while for ⁴⁰K showed normal distribution. Statistically significant correlations between ¹³⁷Cs soil to mushroom transfer factors and agrochemical soil properties have been revealed. Although the concentration ratios varied within the species, the most efficiently transferred elements seems to have been K, followed by Rb, Zn, Cu, Cd, S, Cs and Hg.
