摘要
Cadmium(Cd^(2+))exhibits pronounced phytotoxicity and poses significant risks to human health through bioaccumulation in agricultural products.This study investigates the mitigative effects of foliar-applied nano-molybdenum particles(MoNPs)on Cd accumulation and growth rates in rice(Oryza sativa).Our findings demonstrate that MoNPs application effectively alleviates Cd-induced root growth suppression and reduces Cd deposition in root cell walls,through MoNPs-mediated attenuation of Cd-induced elevation of pectin content.Through cross-sectional analysis combined with ROS-specific fluorescent probes revealed a spatial pattern of Cd-induced H_(2)O_(2)accumulation,with strongest signals observed in the apoplastic regions of root elongation and maturation zones,with minimal accumulation in meristematic regions.This oxidative burst was significantly mitigated by MoNPs treatment,which enhanced plasma membrane(PM)-localized respiratory burst oxidase homolog(RBOH)activity via transcriptional upregulation of OsRBOH genes.Furthermore,foliar MoNPs application activated the ascorbate–glutathione(ASA-GSH)cycle through selective upregulation of OsAPXs and OsGRs,enhancing cellular capacity for H_(2)O_(2)detoxification.These coordinated mechanisms collectively suggest that MoNPs treatment offers dual protection against Cd toxicity by 1)reducing Cd bioavailability in plant tissues and 2)counteracting Cd-induced oxidative damage,thereby effectively ameliorating root growth inhibition under Cd stress.
