Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association Low pH and Al treatments reduced chlorophyll content and net photosynthetic rate of soybean.
- Intervention effect Plants exposed to both Al and Cd had higher malondialdehyde content than plants exposed to Al alone.
- Intervention effect Plants exposed to both Al and Cd had higher superoxide dismutase and peroxidase activities than plants exposed to Al alone.
- Intervention effect Exposure to 150 µM Al enhanced SOD and POD activity in soybean compared with control plants.
- Association Al-sensitive cultivar Zhechun 2 had significantly higher Al and Cd content than Al-tolerant cultivar Liao-1.
- Association Cultivar Zhechun 2 had relatively lower Al content under Al + Cd stress.
- Association Cd addition increased Al content in soybean plants exposed to Al + Cd stress.
- Association Al and Cd are synergistic in their effects on soybean growth and some physiological traits.
