Exogenous glutathione attenuates lead-induced oxidative stress in wheat by improving antioxidant defense and physiological mechanisms

This study aims at investigate how exogenous glutathione (GSH, 1.0 mM) affects the oxidative stress and antioxidant defense in wheat seedlings under lead (Pb) stress [0.5 and 1.0 mM Pb(NO3)2]. Lead treatment decreased growth, leaf relative water content, and chlorophyll (chl) content whereas raised...
