“…Gratão et al (2015) reported that P, Ca and Mg concentrations in the root and shoot of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) exposed to 1 mmol L -1 Cd were lower than control treatment. However, P, K VAN BELLEGHEM et al, 2007;AKHTER et al, 2014;ZHANG et al, 2014) and the beneficial effect of S on Cd tolerance (BABULA et al, 2009; RABÊLO; AZEVEDO; MONTEIRO, 2017b), but little is known about how S interferes in nutrient uptake and root development (MATRASZEK et al, 2016b;, especially in plants used in Cd phytoextraction processes (DEDE; OZDEMIR, 2016). Plants grown under Cd exposure usually exhibit reduced root development and formation of root iron (Fe) plaques, which limits Cd phytoextraction (SEBASTIAN; PRASAD, 2016).…”
