If a property P of ring elements satisfies conditions (a)-(d), then the largest homomorphically closed class having no non-zero P-element is a dual radical in the sense of Andrunakievič, and every dual radical can be obtained in this way. Also properties defined by polynomials are considered and as an application we get various characterizations of the Behrens radical.
