Melatonin improves cadmium tolerance in Salix viminalis by enhancing amino acid and saccharide metabolism, and increasing polyphenols
As a short-rotation woody plant, Salix viminalis has the potential for phytoremediation of cadmium (Cd), but it has poor tolerance to high Cd concentrations. Melatonin (MEL), a candidate bio-promoter, was considered to play an active role in plant responses to Cd. However, the molecular mechanism by...
