- Intervention effect At 5 μM Cd, cucumber growth was significantly reduced.
- Intervention effect Silicon stimulated growth of Cd-treated cucumber.
- Intervention effect Exposure to 5 μM Cd increased shoot Cd concentration in cucumber.
- Intervention effect Exposure to 5 μM Cd decreased iron (Fe) in cucumber.
- Intervention effect Exposure to 5 μM Cd decreased zinc (Zn) concentration in cucumber.
- Intervention effect Si-supplied cucumber plants had lower Cd than unsupplied plants.
- Intervention effect Si-supplied cucumber plants had higher Zn than unsupplied plants.
- Intervention effect Si-supplied cucumber plants had higher Fe than unsupplied plants.
- Intervention effect Cd exposure increased malondialdehyde production in cucumber.
- Intervention effect Si partly ameliorated Cd-induced lipid peroxidation in cucumber.
- Intervention effect 5 μM Cd decreased cucumber superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity.
- Intervention effect 5 μM Cd decreased cucumber guaiacol peroxidase (GPX) activity.
- Intervention effect 5 μM Cd decreased cucumber catalase (CAT) activity.
- Intervention effect 5 μM Cd increased cucumber ascorbate peroxidase activity.
- Mechanism The authors suggest APX induction may contribute to cucumber response to Cd toxicity.
