Abstract excerpt
Tobacco can easily accumulate cadmium (Cd) in leaves and thus poses a potential threat to human health. Cd-stress-hydroponic-experiments were performed, and the proteomic and transcriptional features of two contrasting tobacco genotypes Yun-yan2 (Cd-tolerant) and Guiyan1 (Cd-sensitive) were compared. We identified 18 Cd-tolerance-associated proteins in leaves, using 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis coupled with...
