Plant growth, pigment concentration, biochemical parameters and uptake of heavy metals were determined for Brassica juncea L. in response to cadmium and lead stress. The plant exhibited a decline in growth, chlorophyll content and carotenoids with Cd and Pb but Cd was found to be more detrimental than Pb treatment in B. juncea. The protein content was decreased by Cd (900 μM) to 95% and 44% by ...

this research was done in hydroponic environment in greenhouse at 3 stages (vegetative, flowering and full product) in 5 concentrations of cd (0.1, 0.3, 0.9, 2.7, and 10 mm) for investigating physiological and biological effects. this study revealed that the increase of cd concentration in understudy treatments causes the 49% reduction of sugar solution in 10 mm treatment. on the other hand, th...
