Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Cadmium produced the strongest protein-band and cytological responses in both mosses.
- Intervention effect Lead caused similar but weaker protein and cell changes.
- Intervention effect Zinc altered band intensity without new bands.
- Intervention effect Zinc caused limited injury at tested doses.
- Association Reduced chloroplast counts co-occurred with cadmium and lead bands.
- Association Elevated cell death co-occurred with cadmium and lead bands.
- Method / resource The protein bands were proposed as putative markers requiring validation.
