Correlation analysis and principal components analysis of indicators of (a) and (b) PA and (c) and (d) SA.

Chongyu Zhuo et al. explore how #HydrogenSulfide (H2S) influences nutrient uptake and energy utilization in #SpartinaAlterniflora (SA) and the native #PhragmitesAustralis (PA) under #Cadmium (Cd) stress.

(a) and (b) Photosynthetic pigment concentration and (c) Fv/Fm and (d) NPQ of PA and SA.

#HydrogenSulfide (H2S) ➡️ #SpartinaAlterniflora (SA) & #PhragmitesAustralis (PA) [ #Cadmium (Cd) stress] 🟰 Effects❓
Results:
1️⃣ H2S has a protective effect on SA;
2️⃣ H2S maintains the stability of #MineralElements in SA, while its effect on PA is the opposite.
