Cadmium leads to disturbance of plant growth, and the manifestation of toxicity can vary greatly in different genotypes within one species. In this work we studied the effect of Cd on growth, antioxidant enzyme activity, and phytohormonal status of four barley cultivars (cvs. Simfoniya, Mestnyj, Ca 220702, Malva).

Chronic ionising radiation exposure is a main consequence of radioactive pollution of the environment. The development of functional genomics approaches coupled with morphological and physiological studies allows new insights into plant adaptation to life under chronic irradiation. Using morphological, reproductive, physiological, and transcriptomic experiments, we evaluated the way in which natural accessions from the Chernobyl exclusion zone recover from chronic low-dose and acute high-dose γ-irradiation of seeds.

Plant growth response to γ-irradiation includes stimulating or inhibitory effects depending on plant species, dose applied, stage of ontogeny and other factors. Previous studies showed that responses to irradiation could depend on ABA accumulation and signaling. To elucidate the role of ABA in growth and photosynthetic responses to irradiation, lines Col-8, and of were used.
