Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Silicon under chromium stress restored rice growth parameters.
- Intervention effect Silicon under chromium stress restored total protein content and membrane stability.
- Intervention effect Silicon reduced chromium content in rice shoots under chromium stress.
- Intervention effect Silicon caused no significant change in root chromium content under chromium stress.
- Intervention effect Silicon caused no significant change in iron concentration under chromium stress.
- Intervention effect Silicon caused no significant change in OsIRT1 expression under chromium stress.
- Intervention effect Combined silicon and chromium treatment strongly induced phytochelatin accumulation relative to chromium alone.
- Intervention effect Combined silicon and chromium treatment strongly induced OsPCS1 transcripts relative to chromium alone.
- Observation Glutathione reductase activity increased in roots.
- Mechanism The authors infer that root ROS scavenging partially alleviates chromium toxicity.
