Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of arsenic-tolerant and arsenic-sensitive rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars on the basis of arsenic accumulation assisted stress perception, morpho-biochemical responses, and alteration in genomic template stability.
TL;DR: Cultivar- and dose-dependent alteration of parameters tested including the rate of accumulation showed that Kumargore, Binni, and Vijaya were characterized as arsenate tolerant and could be cultivated in arsenic-prone areas to minimize level of toxicity and potential health hazards.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of arsenic induced toxicity based on arsenic accumulation, translocation and its implications on physio-chemical changes and genomic instability in indica rice ( Oryza sativa L.) cultivars
TL;DR: Potential toxicity caused by arsenate (AsV) among four rice cultivars tested that varied with respect to accumulation of total arsenic, arsenite (AsIII) and their differential translocation rate which had deleterious impact on growth and metabolism is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation of growth, ascorbate-glutathione cycle and thiol metabolism in rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. MTU-1010) seedlings by arsenic and silicon
TL;DR: Joint application of silicate along with arsenate showed significant alterations on all the parameters tested compared to arsenate treatment alone due to less availability of arsenic in the tissue leading to better growth and metabolism in rice seedlings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic-induced oxidative stress and thiol metabolism in two cultivars of rice and its possible reversal by phosphate
TL;DR: In this paper, an inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopic study of arsenic content in the root and shoot also showed variable uptake of arsenic by the two rice seedlings (cv. Khitish and cv. Nayanmani).
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential responses of photosynthetic parameters and its influence on carbohydrate metabolism in some contrasting rice (Oryza sativa L.) genotypes under arsenate stress.
TL;DR: Screen As tolerant and sensitive rice genotypes based on their photosynthetic efficiency in As polluted agricultural fields to reduce As contamination assisted ecotoxicological risk.
