- Intervention effect Lead nitrate significantly decreased root length, shoot height, and root and shoot fresh and dry masses.
- Intervention effect Lead nitrate significantly decreased N, PO4, K, Mg, Ca and Cu content.
- Intervention effect Lead exposure increased carotenoids, soluble sugars, Na and Fe content in leaves.
- Intervention effect Lead exposure increased catalase and peroxidase activities, ascorbic acid and malondialdehyde in leaves.
- Intervention effect Priming with H. opuntia extract could mitigate harmful lead effects.
- Intervention effect Priming with C. fragile extract could mitigate harmful lead effects.
