Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Cadmium reduced wheat dry mass and CAT and APX activities.
- Intervention effect Cadmium increased wheat GST activity.
- Intervention effect F. mosseae increased plant dry mass and CAT, APX and GST activities.
- Intervention effect P. indica increased plant dry mass and CAT, APX and GST activities.
- Intervention effect Together the two fungi increased plant dry mass and antioxidant activities.
- Intervention effect Cadmium decreased CAT transcription.
- Intervention effect F. mosseae induced antioxidant gene expression.
- Association P. indica had weaker evidence of antioxidant gene induction than F. mosseae.
- Association mRNA and enzyme changes were uncorrelated in some cases.
- Recommendation The authors suggest both fungi could alleviate wheat cadmium stress in contaminated soil.
