Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Cadmium application significantly increased cadmium content in pepper seedling organs.
- Intervention effect Cadmium application inhibited pepper seedling growth.
- Intervention effect Selenium promoted pepper growth under cadmium stress.
- Intervention effect Selenium promoted pepper photosynthetic capacity under cadmium stress.
- Intervention effect Pepper leaf superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide and malondialdehyde contents declined progressively under selenium treatment.
- Intervention effect Pepper leaf abscisic acid content declined progressively under selenium treatment.
- Intervention effect Pepper leaf indole-3-acetic acid oxidase activity declined progressively under selenium treatment.
- Intervention effect Pepper leaf proline, ascorbic acid and trans zeatin riboside contents rose significantly under selenium treatment.
- Intervention effect Selenium mitigation of cadmium stress enhanced pepper growth, development and dry matter accumulation.
- Intervention effect Exogenous selenium significantly increased selenium accumulation in pepper seedlings.
- Observation Yuefeng 750 had greater cadmium enrichment capacity than Hongtianhu 101.
- Observation Yuefeng 750 had greater selenium enrichment capacity than Hongtianhu 101.
- Recommendation The authors recommended combining cadmium-excluding pepper cultivars with exogenous selenium to reduce cadmium toxicity and enrich selenium under cadmium pollution.
