Alleviation of copper toxicity in germinating pea seeds by IAA, GA3, Ca and citric acid

The ameliorating effects of four exogenous effectors were investigated in germinating pea seeds exposed to copper excess. The results showed that the application of IAA, GA3, Ca or citric acid alleviated Cu-induced inhibition of growth and simultaneously reduced the oxidative stress injury, particul...
