Abstract: The research of 137Cs accumulation in the different parts of fruiting body of different species of mycorrhizal mushrooms was conducted in the forests of the Chernobyl NPP Alienation zona and of "south track". Measurements of 3 parts of the fruiting bodies of fungi show that the gills have the highest content of radiocesium. Caps and stalks have the lowest concentration of 137Cs.
