Abstract: | Purpose The current study aimed to test the hypothesis that the variations in shoot Cd accumulation among peanut cultivars was ascribed to the difference in capacity of competition with Fe transport, xylem loading and transpiration. Methods A hydroponics experiment was conducted to determine the plant biomass, gas exchange, and Cd accumulation in Fe-sufficient or -deficient plants of 12 peanut cultivars, at low Cd level (0.2 μM CdCl2). Results Peanut varied among cultivars in morpho-physiological response to Cd stress as well as Cd accumulation, translocation and distribution. Qishan 208 and Xvhua 13 showed a higher capacity for accumulating Cd in their shoots. Fe deficiency increased the concentration and amount of Cd in plant organs, but decreased TF root to shoot and TF root to stem, while TF stem to leaf remained unaffected. Fe deficiency-induced increase rates of Cd concentration and total Cd amount in roots and leaves were negatively correlated with the values in Fe-sufficient plants. Transpiration rate was positively correlated with leaf Cd concentration, TF root to shoot, TF root to stem and TF stem to leaf. Conclusions The difference in shoot Cd concentration among peanut cultivars was mainly ascribed to the difference in Fe transport system, xylem loading capacity and transpiration. |
