Physiological responses of Oryza sativa L. to lead excess (10 and 50 μM) were studied in hydroponic system after 48- and 96-h exposure. The Pb accumulation in stressed rice shoots was concomitant with increased metal concentration in the growth media and duration of exposure. Pb stress resulted in...
