Physiological Responses to Cadmium, Nickel and their Interaction in the Seedlings of Two Maize (Zea mays L.) Cultivars
In the leaves of maize seedlings, cultivars Premia and Blitz, the relatively low 2 μmol/L concentration of cadmium (Cd), nickel (Ni), or both metals acting simultaneously (Cd +Ni) for 72 h, induced a significant metal accumulation, decrease in total K+ content, reduction of light-induced membrane el...
