Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is considered a signal molecule inducing cellular stress. Both
heat shock (HS) and Cd can increase H2O2 content. We investigated the involvement of …

Cadmium (Cd) stress may cause serious physiological, ultramorphological and biochemical
anomalies in plants. Cd-induced physiological, subcellular and metabolic alterations in two …

Abstract Changes in growth parameters, root and leaf anatomy, and stress hormone
contents in Cd-stressed soybean (Glycine max L.) seedlings were investigated. Under …

Worldwide contamination of agricultural soils with cadmium (Cd) not only leads to reduced
plant yield, but accumulation within the edible plant parts also poses a serious threat to …

Cadmium (Cd) toxicity of rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Taichung Native 1) seedlings was
evaluated by the decrease in chlorophyll content and the increase in malondialdehyde …

Field peas (Pisum sativum L.) are widely cultivated throughout the world as a cool season
grain and forage crop. Boron (B) toxicity is caused by high B concentration in the soil or …
