Abstract excerpt
Cobalt (Co) and copper (Cu) co-exist in the metal contaminated soils and cause the serious toxicity to crops, while their interactive effect on plant growth and development is still poorly understood. In this work, a hydroponic experiment was carried out to reveal the interactive effect of Co and Cu on photosynthesis and metabolite profiles of two barley genotypes differing in metal tolerance. The results showed...
