H(2)O(2) Is Involved in the Metallothionein-Mediated Rice Tolerance to Copper and Cadmium Toxicity

Cadmium (Cd) and excess copper (Cu) are toxic to plants, causing a wide range of deleterious effects including the formation of reactive oxygen species. Metallothioneins (MTs) may protect plant cells from heavy metal toxicity by chelating heavy metals via cysteine thiol groups. They may also functio...
