Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Increasing cadmium concentration increased reduction in groundnut root length relative to control.
- Intervention effect Zinc alone decreased leaf chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and relative water content.
- Intervention effect Zinc at 150 µM mitigated effects of Cd 100 and 300 µM and increased chlorophyll above control.
- Intervention effect Zinc increased protein content above control and mitigated cadmium effects on protein content.
- Intervention effect Cadmium and zinc treatments inhibited nitrate reductase activity relative to unstressed control.
- Intervention effect Cd 100 and 300 µM increased phenol content over control.
- Intervention effect Cd 500 µM decreased phenol content.
- Intervention effect Zinc in the growing medium significantly enhanced phenolic compound accumulation.
