  18. Seed priming with KNO3 mediates biochemical processes to inhibit lead (Pb) toxicity in maize (Zea mays L.)

    • Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture

    • ABSTRACT

      Background

      Accumulation of lead (Pb) in agricultural soils has become a major factor for reduced crop yields and poses serious threats to humans consuming agricultural products. The present study investigated the effects of KNO3 seed priming (0 and 0.5% KNO3) on growth of maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings exposed to Pb toxicity (0, 1300 and 2550 mg kg−1 Pb).
