Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Increasing soil Pb significantly decreased wheat root dry matter, straw yield and grain yield.
- Intervention effect Increasing soil Pb significantly decreased wheat photosynthetic and transpiration rates.
- Intervention effect Sulfur fertilization under Pb exposure improved photosynthetic and transpiration rates.
- Intervention effect Sulfur fertilization under Pb exposure increased wheat straw and grain yields.
- Intervention effect Sulfur fertilization enhanced Pb accumulation in roots.
- Intervention effect Sulfur fertilization enhanced Pb translocation from roots to shoot.
- Intervention effect Sulfur fertilization enhanced S and Zn contents in plant parts.
- Recommendation The authors conclude wheat is unsuitable for phytoremediation based on total Pb accumulation.
