Abstract excerpt
Salinity and lead are two important abiotic stresses that limit crop growth and yield. In this study, we assayed the effect of these stresses on tolerant and sensitive maize genotypes. Four-week-old maize plants were treated with 250 mM sodium chloride (NaCl) and 250 µM lead (Pb). Our results show that NaCl or Pb treatment of the sensitive genotype caused a significant reduction in the root length, plant height,...
