- Intervention effect Al reduced sorghum chlorophyll a at 4 ppm and higher doses.
- Intervention effect Al reduced total sorghum chlorophyll at 32 and 64 ppm.
- Intervention effect Al caused no chlorophyll b change except at 2 ppm.
- Intervention effect At 64 ppm Al decreased total chlorophyll.
- Intervention effect At 64 ppm Cr decreased total chlorophyll.
- Intervention effect At 64 ppm Pb decreased total chlorophyll.
- Intervention effect At 64 ppm Al increased leaf proline nearly fivefold versus control.
- Intervention effect At 64 ppm Pb increased leaf proline 40-fold versus control.
- Association Root proline, MDA, APX and GST were positively correlated under Al and Cr treatment.
- Association Root GST activity was positively correlated across all three metals.
- Association Leaf proline and MDA were positively correlated under Al and Cr.
- Mechanism Antioxidant enzyme induction appears insufficient at higher metal concentrations to protect sorghum cells.
