Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Malic acid and tartaric acid significantly promoted sunflower growth under Cd/Pb stress at all tested concentrations.
- Intervention effect The Cd10+MA30 treatment gave the highest Cd accumulation in sunflower.
- Intervention effect The Pb100+MA30 treatment gave the highest Pb accumulation in sunflower.
- Association Cd and Pb uptake/translocation coefficients had positive relationships with soil metal concentrations.
- Association Increased root Cd uptake was associated with promoted shoot Cd translocation.
- Association Increased root Cd uptake was associated with enhanced Pb uptake in aerial tissues.
- Intervention effect Malic acid and tartaric acid enhanced both heavy metal uptake and translocation efficiency in sunflower.
