Transgenerational adaptation to heavy metal salts in Arabidopsis

Transgenerational adaptation to heavy metal salts in Arabidopsis

Exposure to abiotic and biotic stress results in changes in plant physiology and triggers genomic instability. Recent reports suggest that the progeny of stressed plants also exhibit changes in genome stability, stress tolerance and methylation.Here we analyzed whether exposure to Ni2+, Cd2+ and Cu2...
