Application of Zinc (Zn) is considered an effective measure to reduce Cadmium (Cd) uptake and toxicity in Cd-contaminated soils for many plant species. However, interaction between Zn and Cd in rice plant is complex and uncertain. In this study, four indica rice cultivars were selected to evaluate t...
