In radioecological studies, soil to plant transfer factors (TF) is commonly used to estimate the food chain transfer of radionuclides, which is an important parameter to assess ingestion doses to humans. Rice is an important (Oryza sativa L.) staple crop in tropical countries and is the major food crop consumed all over the world. Out of the seven countries (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, and the island nations like Sri Lanka and Maldives) of the Indian subcontinent, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Maldives along with a major region of India fall under tropical climate class according to Köppen climate classification. Because, the soil to rice TF under equilibrium conditions are not available for all radionuclides, TF of naturally existing stable elements, which are analogues of radionuclides were compiled. This review paper presents the collection of the TF data of soil to grain and stems & shoots of rice plant for eighteen elements. Data were generated mainly from different sub climatic regions of the tropical environment of India and Bangladesh. An overview of the compilation, analysis, and discussion of the extent and limitations of the data is presented.

在放射生态学研究中，土壤到植物的转移因子（TF）通常用于估算放射性核素的食物链转移，这是评估人体摄入剂量的重要参数。水稻是重要的（稻大号。）是热带国家的主粮作物，是全世界消费的主要粮食作物。印度次大陆，孟加拉国，斯里兰卡和马尔代夫的七个国家（印度，巴基斯坦，孟加拉国，尼泊尔，不丹以及岛屿国家，如斯里兰卡和马尔代夫）以及印度的主要地区都属于热带气候类别根据柯本气候分类。因为在平衡条件下土壤对水稻的TF并非适用于所有放射性核素，所以对天然存在的稳定元素的TF进行了汇总，这些元素是放射性核素的类似物。这篇综述文章介绍了土壤，谷物和水稻茎秆的TF数据的收集，包含18种元素。数据主要来自印度和孟加拉国热带环境的不同亚气候区域。
