Lead toxicity in Nicotiana tabacum L.: Damage antioxidant system and disturb plant metabolism by Tengfei Liu, Kai Zhang, Chunlan Ming, Jiashu Tian, Huanyu Teng, Zicheng Xu, Jiewang He, Fengfeng Liu, Yinghui Zhou, Jiayang Xu, Mohamed G. Moussa, Shenghua Zhang, Wei Jia

“…Metabolomics results showed that Pb stress enhanced tryptophan metabolism, glutathione metabolism, alanine, aspartate, and glutamate metabolism, as well as cysteine and methionine metabolism pathways. These results indicate that increasing the content of photosynthetic pigments and hormones, clearing reactive oxygen species by enhancing antioxidant enzyme activity, and improving amino acid metabolism may play an important role in reducing the toxicity of Pb to tobacco.…”
