Methyl Jasmonate and Sodium Nitroprusside Jointly Alleviate Cadmium Toxicity in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Plants by Modifying Nitrogen Metabolism, Cadmium Detoxification, and AsA–GSH Cycle

Abstract

The main findings are that exogenous application of methyl jasmonate and nitric oxide-donor sodium nitroprusside alleviated the cadmium (Cd)-induced adverse effects on growth of wheat plants grown under Cd by modulating key physiological processes and up-regulating enzymatic antioxidants and the ascorbic acid-glutathione cycle-related enzymes.
