Effects of Mg2+ on concentrations of Pb2+ and Mg2+ in shoots and roots of T. grandis seedlings grown under Pb2+ toxicity.

Treatment Pb2+ content (mg kg-1) Root Shoot Mg2+ content (mg g-1) Root Shoot
T1 n.d. n.d. 0.39 ± 0.03b 0.74 ± 0.03b
T2 n.d. n.d. 0.73 ± 0.08a 3.27 ± 0.05a
T3 689.1 ± 30.5b 231.4 ± 12.3a 0.44 ± 0.05b 0.79 ± 0.02b
T4 876.1 ± 20.2a 156.2 ± 3.6b 0.76 ± 0.01a 3.37 ± 0.2a

Data points and error bars represent mean ± standard deviation of three replicates. Different letters indicate significant differences (P < 0.05); n = 3. The same letter in the same column denotes no significant difference among treatments, n.d. = not determined. Treatments: T1, control; T2, control + 1040 mg kg-1 Mg2+; T3, 1400 mg kg-1 Pb2+; T4, 1400 mg kg-1 Pb2+ + 1040 mg kg-1 Mg2+.
