Effect of exogenous salicylic acid under changing environment: a review
TL;DR: Various intrinsic biosynthetic pathways, interplay of SA and MeSA, its long distance transport and signaling, and the effect of exogenous application of SA on bio-productivity, growth, photosynthesis, plant water relations, various enzyme activities and its effect on the plants exposed to various biotic and abiotic stresses are discussed.

Phytotoxicity of cadmium ions on germinating seedlings of mung bean (Phaseolus vulgaris): Involvement of lipid peroxides in chlorphyll degradation
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of cadmium acetate on the chlorophyll and heme levels of mung bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. K-16) seedlings was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Treatment with salicylic acid decreases the effect of cadmium on photosynthesis in maize plants.
TL;DR: The data suggest that SA may protect cells against oxidative damage and photosynthesis against Cd toxicity, and the level of proline production and the rates of lipid peroxidation and electrolyte leakage increased in Cd-treated plants, whereas the values were much lower in SA-pretreated plants.

Leaf chlorosis in oilseed rape plants (Brassica napus) grown on cadmium-polluted soil: causes and consequences for photosynthesis and growth
TL;DR: Spectroscopic and chromatographic analyses of the photosynthetic pigments indicated that chlorosis was not due to a direct interaction of Cd with the chlorophyll biosynthesis pathway, and mineral deficiency and oxidative stress were apparently not involved in the pigment loss.

Effects of cadmium on antioxidant enzyme and photosynthetic activities in leaves of two maize cultivars
TL;DR: The results suggest that there were similar responses in SOD, APX and GR activities with increasing Cd concentrations for both cultivars, however, POD activity significantly increased at highly toxic Cd levels in 32D99, and this result may be regarded as an indication of better tolerance of the Z. mays L. cultivar32D99 to Cd contamination.
