- Intervention effect Ni and Pb with EDTA reduced sunflower shoot and root dry weights, respectively.
- Intervention effect Ni and Pb with EDTA reduced sunflower shoot and root length.
- Intervention effect Ni and Pb with EDTA reduced sunflower chlorophyll content.
- Intervention effect Ni and Pb with EDTA reduced sunflower photosynthetic activity.
- Observation With EDTA, sunflower shoot and root Ni concentrations reached reported maxima.
- Observation Total Ni and Pb accumulation reached maxima with EDTA.
- Observation Proline content reached reported maxima with EDTA.
- Observation The authors conclude that synthetic chelator increased heavy-metal uptake and translocation.
