Abstract/Contents: | "Roots retained a major portion of the Cd in the seedlings exposed to 0.5-6uM Cd in nutrient solutions. The Cd-binding (Cd-BP) protein of tomato did not account for early retention of Cd by roots, since the protein only appeared at 7 days. The percentage of root Cd in Cd-BP increased over 7 days to 11-34% in Agrostis gigantea clone 4 and to 28-71% in maize. Cd toxicity occurred in both species. Clone 6 of A. gigantea sequestered 21-68% of the root Cd in Cd-BP protein after 1 day of excess Cd and maintained a high percentage through to day 7. No Cd toxicity was manifested. Only the specific response pattern observed in plants of clone 6, the rapid, early and sustained production of Cd-BP, was consistent with a detoxification role for Cd-BP." |
