NAD pattern and NADH oxidase activity in pea (Pisum sativum L.) under cadmium toxicity

Abstract: Seeds of pea (Pisum sativum L.) were germinated for 5 days by soaking in distilled water or 5 mM cadmium chloride. Compared to the control, cadmium (Cd) caused a reduction in percent germination and embryo growth. Pyridine nucleotide coenzyme concentrations were determined in cotyledons and embryonic axis. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) oxidase activity was examined. Cd treatment caused a restriction in levels of reduced coenzyme form in the mitochondria and the post-mitochondrial fraction of cotyled… Show more

“…However, some plant species can survive under highly Al contaminated area and can accumulate much amount of metals (Zeng et al 2011). High tolerance level of Al in some plant species is accomplished by several mechanisms including exclusion, sequestering into vacuoles, sub cellular compartmentation and chelating the metal by any ligand (mostly organic acids) to inert moieties or non-reactive forms (Smiri et al 2010). The ability of few Salvinia species (S. molesta, S. minima and others) for hyper-accumulation has also been illustrated for toxic or heavy metals (Sanchez-Galvan et al 2008).…”
