Figure 10.
Schematic presentation of the findings from this study under the individual/or combinatorial application of SNP and NaHS in Cr-stressed spinach (S. oleracea) plants grown under different levels of Cr stress, i.e., 150 and 300 μM, in sandy loam soil. The figure shows Cr sources in the natural soil and its toxic effects on the plants. The figure also shows that Cr toxicity can be overcome by the alone/or combinatorial application of SNP and NaHS, which decreased oxidative stress in membrane-bound organelles by decreasing Cr content in various parts of the plants. Overall, this scheme presents the complete description of this experiment and the important findings that we have evaluated from the application of SNP and NaHS in Cr-stressed spinach (S. oleracea) plants.
