Most flax (Linum usitatissimum) varieties arc described as tolerant to high concentrations of Cd The aim of the present paper was to better characterize this tolerance, by studying the responses of flax plantlets, cv Hermes. to 18 d growth on 05 mM Cd In Cd-treated seedlings, the majority of Cd was compartmentalized in the roots Analysis of other elements showed that only Fe concentration was reduced, while Mn increased Growth parameters of Cd treated flax were only moderately altered, with similar mass tolerance-indices for roots and shoots Tissue anatomy was unaffected by treatment. The effect on lipid peroxidation, protein carbonylation and antioxidative activities appeared low but slightly higher in roots The most important impacts of Cd were, in all organs, cell expansion, cell-wall thickening, pectin cross-linking and increase of cell-wall enzymatic activities (pectin methylesterase and peroxidase) Thus, the role of the cell wall in Cd tolerance might be important at two levels (i) in the reinforcement of the tissue cohesion and (ii) in the sequestration of Cd (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved
