Application of iron on improving antimony tolerance in Salvia spinosa by Shakiba Rajabpoor, Soghra Kiani, Shokoofeh Hajihashemi

“…The plants exposure to iron minimized the uptake of both Sb species by Salvia roots. The limitation of H2O2 generation in response to co-application of Fe with Sb was followed by counterbalancing the antioxidant enzymes (e.g. catalase, superoxide dismutase and ascorbate peroxidase), phenols, flavonoids, lipid membrane preservation, and increase of the carbohydrates and proteins contents, which altogether improved growth in Sb-stressed plants. …”
