Abstract

The present mini review aimed to explain the potential protective role of some chemicals against Copper (Cu) toxicity in plant. Many studies suggest that the exogenous supply of effectors such as nitric oxide, polyamines, organic acids and growth regulators to germinating seeds can be a promising alternative to improve plant response to heavy metal stress.
