Abstract:Investigating the tomato tolerance to cadmium (Cd) via high throughput proteomics The problem of cadmium (Cd) toxicity aggravates every year. However, the amount of plant species presenting some degree of tolerance to this metal is low. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to understand the Cd tolerance mechanisms. Two tomato cultivars exhibiting distinct levels of tolerance to Cd were investigated by exposing them to 35 µm CdCl2 for eight days. The samples (roots, stems, and leaves) were collected at 0, 2, 4… Show more
