Other claims from this paper (12)
- Observation Cadmium accumulation was significant in Rangpur lime roots but not in shoots and leaves.
- Intervention effect Cadmium significantly increased WC in Rangpur lime roots.
- Intervention effect Cadmium did not cause significant differences in leaves and shoots for either parameter.
- Intervention effect Sucrose content was higher in control roots than in Cd-exposed roots.
- Intervention effect Apoplastic sucrose content was much higher in Cd-exposed roots than in control roots.
- Intervention effect Cd-exposed roots showed a significant decrease in cell wall-bound and cytoplasmic (neutral) invertase activities.
- Intervention effect The vacuolar invertase isoform did not change in Cd-exposed roots.
- Intervention effect Alterations in lipid composition and membrane fluidity were observed in Cd-exposed roots.
- Intervention effect Phospholipid and glycolipid contents decreased by about 50% in Cd-exposed roots.
- Intervention effect Sterols content was reduced by about 22% in Cd-exposed roots.
- Intervention effect Proton extrusion was inhibited by Cd in Rangpur lime roots.
- Observation Lipid peroxidation and proton extrusion inhibition were detected by histochemical analysis.
