Citric acid inhibits Cd uptake by improving the preferential transport of Mn and triggering the defense response of amino acids in grains

Citric acid (CA) can regulate the balance of anions and cations in plants, and improve their resistance to heavy metals. It is not clear if foliar application with CA has any effect on migration of Cd and Mn in rice plant. In this work, a low-Cd-accumulating indica rice line (P7) and a high-Cd-accum...
