Abstract Cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) are nonessential and toxic elements in rice that
often occur together in contaminated paddy field soils. To understand whether rice has a …

Although Cd accumulation varies among rice varieties is recognized, the underlying
mechanisms are not well clarified. In this study, comparative transcriptome analysis were …

Rice growth is severely affected by toxic concentrations of the nonessential heavy metal
cadmium (Cd). To elucidate the molecular basis of the response to Cd stress, we performed …

The effect of arsenic (As) exposure on genome-wide expression was examined in rice
(Oryza sativa L., ssp. Indica). A group of defense and stress-responsive genes, transporters …

The inessential heavy metal/loids cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As), which often co-occur in
polluted paddy soils, are toxic to rice. Silicon (Si) treatment is known to reduce Cd and As …

Background The migration of cadmium (Cd) from contaminated soil to rice is a cause for
concern. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the response of rice roots to …

Rice growth and development is highly affected by the excessive concentration of the heavy
metal cadmium (Cd). To elucidate the molecular basis of Cd tolerance, we carried out …

Cadmium (Cd) is highly toxic to living organisms. This study aimed to elucidate the
regulation of gene expression in rice shoots under Cd stress. Rice plants were exposed to 0 …

Widely-spread cadmium (Cd) pollution in the soil threatens both crop production and human
health. How plants deal with the excess Cd are largely unknown. To evaluate the molecular …

Plant growth is severely affected by toxic concentrations of the non-essential heavy metal
cadmium (Cd). Comprehensive transcriptome analysis by RNA-Seq following cadmium …
