Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Arsenic stress impaired chlorophyll metabolism, nitrogen metabolism and Fe uptake in tomato.
- Intervention effect Arsenic stress reduced plant growth and biomass in tomato.
- Intervention effect Brassinolide spray protected the photosynthetic system of tomato under arsenic stress.
- Intervention effect Brassinolide spray helped tomato plants grow better under arsenic stress.
- Mechanism Brassinolide lowered the amounts of methylglyoxal and H2O2 in tomato through glyoxalase I and II and antioxidant enzymes.
- Mechanism Brassinolide controls the metabolism of chlorophyll and proline in tomato under arsenic stress.
- Intervention effect Brassinolide decreased arsenic accumulation in tomato by directing arsenic sequestration towards vacuoles.
- Intervention effect Brassinolide boosted tomato adaptability against arsenic phytotoxicity.
- Intervention effect Brassinolide reduced the damaging impacts of arsenic on photosynthesis, nitrogen metabolism and sulfur assimilation in tomato.
- Intervention effect Brassinolide reduced the damaging impacts of arsenic on Fe absorption in tomato.
- Recommendation The authors suggest that exogenous brassinosteroid-based breeding strategies can support safer agricultural development.
