Phenotypic changes in ramie plants under cadmium (Cd) stress (treated with 10 mg L− 1 CdCl2). a–c Phenotypic changes in the whole plant, leaf, and root, respectively. The red bar indicates a scale of 2 cm. d–h Changes in plant height, root length, leaf length, leaf width, and biomass. Fw, fresh weight of the whole plant. Dw, dry weight of the whole plant. i Chlorophyll content in the fourth leaf from the top of ramie plants under Cd stress for 20 days. Chla, chlorophyll a; Chlb, chlorophyll b; Chl(a + b), chlorophyll a and b. j Cd content in the root, stem, and leaf of ramie plants under Cd stress for 20 days. For d-g, data are means ± standard deviation (SD) of three replicates. Each replicate included 10 individual plants. ** denotes significantly different from the Cd-free (control) at P < 0.01
