The arsenic (As) is a toxic element causing major health concern worldwide. Arsenate stress
caused no significant reduction in growth parameters and shoot electrolyte leakage but …

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 …

Some antimony (Sb) contaminated areas are used for rice cultivation in response to
