| Abstract: | We studied the effect of cadmium and nickel on Sinapis alba L. plants inoculated with endophytic strains of Bacillus subtilis. It was shown that treatment of S. alba seeds with endophytic strains of bacteria B. subtilis improves plant resistance to the toxic effect of cadmium and nickel and reduces manifestation of oxidative stress in the presence of higher levels of metal ions in the above-ground part of plants. Anti-stress effect and the ability of endophytic strains of B. subtilis to intensify uptake of cadmium and nickel ions by S. alba plants may be used for phytoextraction of heavy metals and stimulation of plant growth in contaminated areas. |
