Other claims from this paper (12)
- Intervention effect Zinc treatment increased soybean germination rate.
- Intervention effect Lead treatment increased soybean germination rate.
- Intervention effect Increased metal treatment significantly decreased root length.
- Intervention effect Increased metal treatment significantly decreased shoot length.
- Intervention effect Higher zinc concentrations significantly decreased soybean germination percentage.
- Intervention effect Zinc decreased soybean root length at all concentrations.
- Intervention effect Zinc decreased soybean shoot length at all concentrations.
- Intervention effect Zinc and lead increased catalase activity at all concentrations.
- Intervention effect Zinc and lead increased peroxidase activity at all concentrations.
- Observation Soybean was more tolerant of lead than zinc.
- Mechanism Authors infer a rapid response may reduce short-term metal stress intensity.
- Observation Authors conclude soybean does not appear tolerant to these heavy metals.
