Cadmium (Cd) contamination in agricultural soils restricts crop productivity by disturbing cellular redox homeostasis and metabolism. The present study assessed whether taurine mitigates Cd-induced toxicity in hydroponically grown maize ( Zea mays L., cv. Hido) seedlings exposed to 100 µM Cd in the presence or absence of taurine supplementation. Cd stress significantly reduced root and shoot development, pigment levels, solubl...
