Azolla incorporation under flooding reduces grain cadmium accumulation by decreasing soil redox potential
Abstract Cadmium (Cd) presents severe risks to human health and environments. The present study proposed a green option to reduce bioavailable Cd. Rice pot experiments were conducted under continuous flooding with three treatments (T1: intercropping azolla with rice; T2: incorporating azolla into so...
