Table 1 Metal concentration (μM) which caused 50% inhibition of root growth (I50) for the different metals used on T. goesingense and A. thaliana followed by the relative comparative tolerance index of T. goesingense for different metals.
Nickel (μM) | Cobalt | Zinc | Cadmium | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Thlaspi goesingense | > 500 | 460 | > 500 | 38 |
Arabidopsis thaliana | 80 | 56 | 98 | 13 |
Comparative Tolerance Index (I50 Thlaspi/I50 Arabidopsis) | Ni > 6.28 | Co 8.14 | Zn > 5.09 | Cd 2.84 |
