Contrasting physiological-biochemical responses and elemental homeostasis in Pinus sylvestris families exposed to As, Cd and Pb.

Contamination with As, Cd and Pb can limit tree establishment on degraded substrates, but family-level variation in Scots pine responses remains poorly resolved. This study evaluated three open-pollinated maternal half-sib families of Pinus sylvestris L. under controlled hydroponic exposure to As, Cd and Pb. Growth, ph...
