Low concentrations of methyl jasmonate promote plant growth and mitigate Cd toxicity in Cosmos bipinnatus
Abstract Cadmium (Cd) is a biologically non-essential heavy metal, a major soil pollutant, and extremely harmful to plants. The phytohormone methyl jasmonate (MeJA) plays an important role in plant heavy-metal resistance. However, the understanding of the effects of MeJA supply level on alleviating...
