Nitrogen supply improved plant growth and Cd translocation in maize at the silking and physiological maturity under moderate Cd stress

Nitrogen supply improved plant growth and Cd translocation in maize at the silking and physiological maturity under moderate Cd stress

Soil cadmium (Cd) contamination is a serious problem on agricultural land. Adequate nitrogen (N) may help ameliorate plant fitness under Cd stress. This study examined the role of N application in improving maize tolerance to Cd stress. Two maize genotypes, Zhongke11 (larger root system) and Shengru...
