Fig. 1From: Comparative physiological and metabolomic analyses reveal that Fe3O4 and ZnO nanoparticles alleviate Cd toxicity in tobaccoEffects of Fe3O4 and ZnO NPs on the growth of tobacco. Representative phenotypes of Fe3O4 NPs (a) and ZnO NPs (b) supplemented with or without 5 μM Cd. c, d The plant height and shoot fresh weight of ‘Yunyan 87’ seedlings; e, f The root length and fresh weight of tobacco seedlings. FW, fresh weight. Bars = 5 cm. The results shown are the means ± SE (n = 3; 15 plants/treatment/replicate), and different letters show significantly different values (p < 0.05 according to Tukey’s test)Back to article page
