Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Polymetals reduced barley root water content.
- Intervention effect Polymetals reduced the proportion of cell wall in roots.
- Intervention effect Homocastasterone restored root dry weight nearly to control.
- Intervention effect Homocastasterone restored root water content nearly to control.
- Intervention effect Homocastasterone restored the root cell-wall proportion nearly to control.
- Intervention effect Polymetals only weakly affected the aerial-part parameters.
- Intervention effect Brassinosteroids only weakly affected the aerial-part parameters.
- Intervention effect Homocastasterone increased demethylated carboxyl groups in root cell-wall pectins.
- Intervention effect Homocastasterone increased demethylated carboxyl groups in leaf cell-wall pectins.
- Mechanism The authors suggest homocastasterone changes cell-wall ion-exchange properties to reduce polymetal toxicity through apoplastic immobilization.
