Effects of benzoic acid and cadmium toxicity on wheat seedlings

Benzoic acid (BA) and Cd exhibit cumulative effects on plants due to their accumulation in the soil. The present study reports the effects of BA an allelochemical, Cd and their combinations on seed germination, seedling growth, biochemical parameters, and response of antioxidant enzymes in Triticum...

The experiment was conducted in sand supplemented with Hoagland nutrient solution.
