[ 1 ] - An Assessment of Oxidative Stress and Antioxidant System Activity in Alfalfa Plants Treated with Different Forms of Mineral Arsenic

Arsenic (As), a metalloid and unnecessary element, is highly toxic to living organisms. It can be accumulated in the environment and enter the food chains through uptake by plants. The present study was designed to assess the response of antioxidant defense system of alfalfa to As (As0, As3+ and As5+) induced oxidative stress at four rates (0, 100, 200, and 300 µM) as a completely randomized de...
