Alleviation of Cadmium Toxicity in Rice by γ-Polyglutamic Acid Produced by Bacillus subtilis

The effect of γ-polyglutamic acid (PGA) produced by Bacillus subtilis on cadmium (Cd)-damaged rice was investigated in experiments with pots containing soil contaminated with Cd at a concentration of 0-200 mg/kg and PGA at a concentration of 0-500 mg/kg. Although Cd reduced the growth and productiv...
