Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Both Zn and Cu significantly decreased leaf relative water content and photosynthetic pigments in S. amara seedlings.
- Intervention effect Both Zn and Cu increased lipid peroxidation and antioxidant levels in S. amara seedlings.
- Intervention effect For lipid peroxidation, Cu was more toxic to seedlings than Zn.
- Intervention effect For leaf relative water content and photosynthetic pigments, Zn had higher toxic effects than Cu.
- Intervention effect Proline content increased by 234% under Zn stress at 200 mg Kg-1.
- Intervention effect Cysteine content increased by 270% under Zn stress at 200 mg Kg-1.
- Intervention effect Cysteine content increased by 102% under Cu stress at 200 mg Kg-1.
- Intervention effect Glutathione reductase activity showed the maximum increase among antioxidant enzymes, 600% under Cu stress at 200 mg Kg-1.
- Intervention effect Glutathione reductase activity showed the maximum increase among antioxidant enzymes, 320% under Zn stress at 200 mg Kg-1.
- Intervention effect Glutathione peroxidase activity showed a minimum increase of 60% under Cu stress at 200 mg Kg-1.
- Intervention effect Catalase activity showed a minimum increase of 69% under Zn stress at 200 mg Kg-1.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that S. amara has a better antioxidant defensive mechanism against oxidative stress.
- Recommendation The authors recommend S. amara for large scale cultivation on wastelands.
