PY - 2019 DA - 2019/12/16 TI - Response of Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranean L.) and Maize (Zea mays L.) to heavy metal stress JO - Beni-Suef University Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences SP - 19 VL - 8 IS - 1 AB - Plants are usually the target of environmental pollution. This study, therefore, investigates the effects of Zinc (Zn) and lead Pb on Bambara nut (Vigna subterranean) and Maize (Zea mays) at different concentrations, as well as the possible ameliorating effect of the chelant; ethylene diamine acetate (EDTA) and farmyard manure, on the enzymatic activities, the chlorophyll, total protein, and carbohydrate contents.
