Biometric and biochemical attributes of alfalfa seedlings as indicators of stress induced by excessive cadmium
The biometric and biochemical attributes of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) seedlings were studied after their exposure to 0-120 µM cadmium for 28 days using hydroponic culture. The growth, photosynthetic area and pigment contents (chlorophyll a, b and total) declined significantly (p < 0.05) in the...
