Influence of salicylic acid on phytochelatin synthesis in Zea mays during Cd stress [PDF]
, 2013 : Presoaking maize (Zea mays) seeds in salicylic acid (SA) reduces damage caused by cadmium. In the present work the possible role of phytochelatins (PCs) in SA-mediated protection against Cd toxicity was investigated. Seeds were presoaked in 0.5 mM SA,

Ascorbate-Glutathione Cycle Alteration in Cadmium Sensitive Rice Mutant cadB-1
Rice Science, 2012 A rice cadmium (Cd) sensitive mutant cadB-1 was obtained using Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated system. After exposure of cadB-1 and wild type (WT) rice seedlings to a range of Cd concentrations for 10 d, Cd accumulated to higher levels in roots, stems and leaves of both cadB-1 and WT with increasing external Cd concentrations, and the inhibition of ...
