Cadmium Phytoextraction and Physiological Changes of Triticum aestivum L. in Hydroponic Culture
Abstract:
This work evaluated the effect of cadmium (Cd) on the physiological responses of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). For this purpose, seedlings of wheat were cultivated under controlled conditions. The plant chlorophyll content of young leaves, biomass production, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities and phytosiderophores (PS) release by roots were assessed. Results showed that Cd decreased the chlorophyll content of young leaves, accompanied by a significant shoot and root biomass reduction across all Cd treatments. Cadmium also inhibited PS release in wheat.
