Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Arsenic toxicity decreased shoot length, shoot fresh weight and shoot dry weight of tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Arsenic toxicity suppressed chlorophyll biosynthesis, nutrient homeostasis and the glyoxalase system in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Exogenous arsenic induced overproduction of ROS and methylglyoxal in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Exogenous arsenic enhanced chlorophyllase (Chlase) activity in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Combined Ca2+ and JA application was more effective than their individual effects on tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Application of Ca2+ and JA together significantly enhanced chlorophyll biosynthesis in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Application of Ca2+ and JA together suppressed chlorophyllase (Chlase) activity in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Application of Ca2+ and JA together enhanced delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase activity in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Application of Ca2+ and JA together improved glyoxalase I and glyoxalase II activity in tomato seedlings.
- Intervention effect Exogenous Ca2+ and JA maintained the balance supply of nutrients and glycine betaine in tomato seedlings under arsenic toxicity.
- Intervention effect Combined Ca2+ and JA suppressed ROS overproduction in tomato seedlings by modulating antioxidant enzymes.
- Intervention effect With the Ca2+ chelator EGTA, the efficacy of Ca2+ was eliminated, confirming the role of Ca2+ and JA in arsenic tolerance.
- Mechanism Ca2+ and JA together mediated arsenic tolerance of tomato seedlings by improving physiological defence mechanisms.
