Deciphering the mechanism of Cd accumulation in crops is imperative for minimizing soil-to-plant transfer of Cd to improve safe food production. Hydroponic experiments were performed examining Cd accumulation, growth performance and protein characteristics of two rice genotypes, Xiushui817 and Zheda821, with low and high grain Cd accumulation, respectively, under Cd stress and in the presence of Si. Xiushui817 had lower root-to-shoot Cd translocation and was more sensitive to Cd stress than Zheda821. Si reduced the shoot Cd content in both genotypes but more efficacy in Zheda821. Tandem mass tags (TMT)-based proteomic analysis identified 25 proteins associated with low grain Cd accumulation, including vacuolar H |
