Correlations between Cd toxicity and production of phytochelatins (PCs) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) exposed to Cd added with various organic acids
有机酸存在下小麦体内Cd的生物毒性和植物络合素(PCs)合成的关系

Phytochelatins (PCs) have been suggested as a potential biomarker for evaluating metal phytoxicity. However, most previous studies on metal toxicity and PCs production in higher plants were conducted in metal-defined medium without differentiating possible changes of metal speciation in this complex system. This study aimed to investigate the correlations between Cd toxicity and production of phytochelatins (PCs) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in Cd solutions buffered by various organic acids.
