Overexpression of CAL2 increased Cd accumulation in rice. Transgene-negative control ZH11 and 35S:CAL2-mRFP transgenic plants were grown in a heavy metal contaminated paddy field until ripening. Heterologous overexpression of CAL2 increased cadmium (Cd) accumulation in rice straws (A) and grains (B). (C,D) Essential mineral nutrients accumulation in (C) rice straws and (D) grains. Data are means ± SDs of three independent biological replicates. Significant differences from ZH11 were determined by Student’s t-test (P < 0.05).
