The radical of a module over a commutative ring is the intersection of all prime submodules. It is proved that if R is a commutative domain which is either Noetherian or a UFD then R is one-dimensional if and only if every (finitely generated) primary R-module has prime radical, and this holds precisely when every (finitely generated) R-module satisfies the radical formula for primary submodules.
