Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Fresh weight, dry weight and germination index of ryegrass were promoted at low cadmium concentrations (≤ 25 mg/L).
- Association Inhibition rates of root and bud length of three plants were significantly correlated with cadmium concentrations.
- Association Bud sensitivity to cadmium ranked grain amaranth, ryegrass and Indian mustard by IC50.
- Association Root length sensitivity to cadmium ranked grain amaranth, Indian mustard and ryegrass by IC50.
- Association Cadmium tolerance ranked ryegrass, Indian mustard and grain amaranth by the membership function.
- Recommendation Root length inhibition rate can probably serve as an important indicator of heavy metal Cd stress ability.
- Association Ryegrass is speculated to have better resistance to Cd stress.
- Recommendation Ryegrass may be further applied to heavy metal Cd ecological restoration.
