Effects of Cd treatment on morphology, chlorophyll content and antioxidant enzyme activity of <i>Elymus nutans</i> Griseb., a native plant in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

In general, 10 mg·L −1 Cd treatment promoted the growth of leaf number, plant height, crown width and tiller number, while 40 mg·L −1 Cd treatment inhibited the growth of root number and biomass of En . 3.2 Effects of Cd treatment on physiology of En With the increase of Cd treatment concentration, MDA content ( Figure 3a , p < 0.001), free proline content ( Figure 3b , p < 0.001), SOD activity ( Figure 3c , p < 0.001), APX activity ( Figure 3d , p < 0.001) and CAT activity ( Figure 3e , p < 0.001) all showed an increasing trend.
