Moderate Uranium Disturbs the Nutritional Status and Induces Oxidative Stress in Pisum sativum L.
Author(s): Gupta DK, Tawussi F, Hamann L and Walther C
Environmental contamination by radionuclides particularly uranium is a serious problem at many contaminated sites worldwide. In our present report, we explored production of NO and H2O2 in Pisum sativum, as well as micro/macro elements uptake after uranium addition. Hydroponically grown plants (in amended Hoagland medium) were treated with two different concentration of uranium ([U]=25 and 50 μM respectively) for 5 days. Plants showed a decrease in NO production in [U]=50 μM treatments in both root/ leaves by DAF-2DA staining in comparison to control. On the other hand, production of H2O2 was enhanced in bot... view more»
