Differential modulation of photosynthesis and defense strategies towards copper toxicity in primary and cotyledonary leaves of Ricinus communis L.

Copper (Cu) is an essential element associated with different metabolic processes in plants. However, at concentrations higher than the threshold level, it becomes a potential stress factor. In the present investigation, the Cu-induced photosynthetic changes and prominent Cu detoxification methods w...
