Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Cd and/or UV-B stress decreased dry mass and pigment content in soybean seedlings.
- Intervention effect Cd and/or UV-B stress decreased net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance and transpiration rate in soybean seedlings.
- Intervention effect SA alleviated the adverse effects of Cd and/or UV-B on growth and pigment content.
- Intervention effect SA alleviated the adverse effects of Cd and/or UV-B on net photosynthetic rate and stomatal conductance.
- Intervention effect Cd and/or UV-B induced oxidative stress and increased lipid peroxidation.
- Intervention effect SA pre-treatment significantly decreased the lipid peroxidation increased by Cd and/or UV-B.
- Intervention effect Cd and/or UV-B increased superoxide dismutase activity.
- Intervention effect Catalase activity was mostly unaltered by Cd and/or UV-B.
- Mechanism The authors suggest SA might act as a potential antioxidant and a stabilizer of membrane integrity, improving plant resistance to Cd and/or UV-B stress.
