Özet
BackgroundHeavy metal contamination in agricultural soils disrupts plant growth and metabolism. Although zinc (Zn) is a necessary element, concentrations above 50 ppm can be toxic to plants. Grafting has emerged as a potential strategy to mitigate heavy metal stress by enhancing tolerance, reducing translocation to edible plant parts, and maintaining crop productivity.ResultsIn this study, cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) was grafted onto Cremna F1, Maximus F1, and TZ148 F1 rootstocks and evaluated under four Zn conditions (Zn-deficient 0 ppm, 10 ppm, 50 ppm, and control with 0.05 ppm Zn) in a hydroponic system. Grafted plants exhibited significant improvements, including a 21.5% increase in shoot length and 27.3% higher fresh root weight compared to non-grafted controls. Chlorophyll content remained stable in grafted plants (1.42±0.03 mg g⁻ ¹ FW) but declined in non-grafted plants (1.18±0.07 mg g⁻ ¹ …
