Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Adding 0.1 µmol/L Cd and Zn slightly increased plant height and leaf number of tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect At 5 and 10 µmol/L Cd and Zn, root length, plant height and leaf number of tomato seedlings were significantly reduced.
- Intervention effect 10 µmol/L Cd for 12 d reduced plant height of tomato seedlings by 46.4% compared with control.
- Intervention effect 10 µmol/L Zn for 12 d reduced plant height of tomato seedlings by 36.7% compared with control.
- Intervention effect 10 µmol/L Cd for 12 d reduced root length of tomato seedlings by 41.1%.
- Intervention effect 10 µmol/L Zn for 12 d reduced root length of tomato seedlings by 25.8%.
- Intervention effect Total amino acid content of tomato seedlings decreased as Cd and Zn in the growth medium increased.
- Association Accumulation of proline and glycine seems to correlate with greater tolerance of tomato seedlings to Cd and Zn stress.
