Arsenic tolerance in mesquite (Prosopis sp.): Low molecular weight thiols synthesis and glutathione activity in response to arsenic
a b s t r a c t The effects of arsenic stress on the production of low molecular weight thiols (LMWT), glutathione S-transferase activity (GST) and sulfur metabolism of mesquite plant (Prosopis sp.) were examined in hydroponic culture at different arsenic [As(III) and (V)] concentrations. The produc...
