Abstract
An experiment carried out to study the effect of five Cd as well as Zn levels on growth and amino acids content of tomato. It clear that the addition of 0.1 µmol/L of Cd and Zn induced a slight increase in plant height and leaf number. However, at higher levels, i.e., 5 and 10 µmol/L, root length, plant height and leaf number values were all significantly reduced. The exposure to 10 µmol/L Cd and Zn for 12 d reduced plant height by 46.4, 36.7% compared with control, respectively. Similarly, root length was reduced by 41.1% and 25.8% respectively. The addition of Cd and Zn in the growth medium also had significant deleterious effect on chlorophyll content of tomato seedlings. Total amino acids content is decreased with the increasing of Cd and Zn in growth medium. The accumulation of proline and glycine seems to correlate with the greater tolerance of tomato seedlings against Cd and Zn stress.
