Seed Priming Improved Antioxidant Defense System and Alleviated Ni-Induced Adversities in Rice Seedlings Under N, P, or K Deprivation

Excess nickel (Ni) concentration in the growing medium severely hampers the plant growth by disturbing oxidative metabolism and nutrient status. The present study was carried out to investigate the individual and interactive effects of Ni toxicity (0.25 mM NiSO4.6H2O) and nutrient deprivation (no-N,...
