Cysteine (Cys) is incorporated into several compounds which are involved in detoxification of heavy metals. It is evident from recent studies that Cys is effective in alleviating the toxicity of heavy metals. Nevertheless, little is known about the Cys-mediated alleviation of chromium (Cr) toxicity. In our study, the impacts of exogenous Cys on Cr-stressed maize (Zea mays L.) were examined by using physiological and proteomic analyses. The results showed that Cr (100 µM) increased the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide,
