Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Increasing Cd exposure decreased root development in soybean seedlings.
- Intervention effect Increasing Cd exposure enhanced MDA content in soybean seedlings.
- Intervention effect Root morphology and antioxidant enzyme activity showed hormesis-type responses in soybean up to 500 mg L-1 of Cd.
- Mechanism Proline content may have played a fundamental role in maintaining metabolic activities and biomass of soybean seedlings under Cd stress.
- Intervention effect Use of the growth regulator intensified the toxicity responses caused by increased Cd exposure in soybean seedlings.
- Intervention effect The growth regulator changed MDA content and antioxidant activity differently in root and shoot of soybean seedlings under Cd exposure.
