Differential responses of thiol metabolism and genes involved in arsenic detoxification in tolerant and sensitive genotypes of bioenergy crop Ricinus communis

Differential responses of thiol metabolism and genes involved in arsenic detoxification in tolerant and sensitive genotypes of bioenergy crop Ricinus communis

Castor, a non-food, devoted bioenergy crop, has immense potential for use for phytoremediation/revegetation of heavy steel contaminated websites. Within the earlier examine, we recognized arsenate [As(V)]-tolerant (WM) and As(V)-sensitive (GCH 2) genotypes of castor (Ricinus communis L.) with differential accumulation and tolerance of arsenic [As]. The position of thiols in As(V) toxicity and tolerance mechanism […]
