Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Cadmium exposure significantly inhibited soybean growth.
- Intervention effect Cadmium exposure severely reduced soybean photosynthetic pigment content.
- Intervention effect Cadmium treatment increased lipid peroxidation and hydrogen peroxide levels in soybean.
- Intervention effect Zeatin was the cytokinin most severely affected by cadmium in soybean.
- Intervention effect Cadmium increased the activities of superoxide dismutase, peroxidase and catalase in soybean.
- Intervention effect Cadmium increased ascorbate peroxidase activity in soybean.
- Intervention effect Cadmium altered glutathione content in soybean.
- Mechanism The enzyme changes are interpreted as a cadmium-induced defense mechanism that copes with elevated oxidative stress in soybean.
