Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Calcium at 1.0 mmol/l increased growth of all maize seedling organs relative to 0.1 and 10.0 mmol/l.
- Intervention effect Cadmium inhibited maize organ growth with 0.1 and 1.0 mmol/l calcium chloride.
- Association Calcium content in maize seedling organs rose with increasing calcium concentration in solution.
- Intervention effect Cadmium with 10.0 mmol/l calcium chloride increased calcium concentrations in maize roots and coleoptiles.
- Intervention effect The highest calcium concentration decreased cadmium concentration in maize roots.
- Intervention effect Cadmium with 0.1 or 1.0 mmol/l calcium chloride diminished potassium accumulation in maize roots.
- Intervention effect Cadmium did not alter root potassium content when calcium chloride was 10.0 mmol/l.
- Intervention effect Sodium content was unaffected by cadmium with 0.1 or 1.0 mmol/l calcium.
- Intervention effect Cadmium with 10.0 mmol/l calcium chloride decreased sodium accumulation in maize roots.
- Mechanism Authors attributed the growth benefit of high calcium under cadmium to maintaining high root potassium.
