Physiological adaptations of Pennisetum purpureum cv. red under graded cadmium stress and their ecological implications

Puntos clave

• Physiological adaptations improved resilience under increasing cadmium stress levels, highlighting plant defense mechanisms.
• Key evidence shows enhanced growth and reduced toxicity in plants exposed to low cadmium concentrations over several weeks.
• Analysis of cadmium stress effects on physiological adaptations in Pennisetum purpureum evaluates growth responses to heavy metal exposure.
• The findings suggest potential applications in phytoremediation, but further studies are needed to validate ecological benefits.
