Upregulation of antioxidant and glyoxalase systems mitigates NaCl stress in Brassica juncea by supplementation of zinc and calcium

Possible involvement of calcium (Ca) and zinc (Zn) in mitigation of salt (NaCl) stress-induced oxidative damage in Brassica juncea was investigated. Salt stress (200 mM NaCl) reduced leaf pigment synthesis and some key photosynthetic attributes including stomatal conductance and internal CO2 concent...
