abstract = {The heavy metal cadmium (Cd) is an important pollutant and
poisonousto many organisms. We studied the effects of Cd on
C.demersum under environmentally relevant conditions. High,
moderateand low concentrations of Cd had different effects.
Lethally toxicconcentrations (100–200 nM) led to growth
stop and the plants’ability to perform photosynthesis
(measured as Fv/Fm) decreased morethan twofold, consistent
with decreased pigment content. Moderatelytoxic
concentrations (10–50 nM) led to reduced growth,
slightlyreduced pigment content, but hardly affected
photosynthesis (measuredas O2 exchange and as Fv/Fm). Lower
concentrations(0.2–5 nM) even had beneficial effects, like
enhanced growth rate.When applied in low concentrations, Cd
was homogeneously distributedin the whole cross-section of
the leaves like a nutrient.Moderate and high Cd
concentrations led to sequestration of Cd in thevascular
bundle and the epidermis cells, where Cd does not
affectphotosynthetic molecules. At toxic Cd concentrations,
Zn was redistributedand mainly found in the vein along with
Cd, indicatinginhibition of Zn transporters. Consistently,
by metalloproteomics(HPLC-ICP-MS) we found that during Cd
toxicity concentrations of Cdincreased in fractions of the
major photosynthetic complexes while Mgdecreased, suggesting
the replacement of Mg by Cd in chlorophylls.Furthermore, the
induction of phytochelatins was not proportionalto metal
concentration, but had distinct thresholds, specific for
each PCspecies. PC3 especially was switch-like induced
already at 20 nM Cd,which was previously regarded as
non-toxic to most plants. Phytochelatinlevels at the lowest
Cd concentrations were not detectable orbelow 0.1 $\%$ of
the level at sublethally toxic concentrations,
suggestingthat they do not have another function than metal
detoxification.},
