The effects of the overexpression of EpTDC1 and EpASMT1 decreased Cd accumulation on Cd concentration in Arabidopsis thaliana whole plants, shoots, and roots. The A. thaliana seedlings at the four-leaf stage of wild-type (WT), EpTDC1–1/EpTDC1–2, and EpASMT1–1/EpAMST1–2 were transferred to soil containing 0, 20.0, and 40.0 mg kg− 1 Cd2+, respectively for 30 d. Data are means ± SD (n = 4). Columns with different letters denote significant differences at P < 0.05 according to Duncan’s multiple range test
