HRW treatment alleviates CdCl₂, NaCl and H₂O₂ stresses. The mycelia were supplemented with 50 μM CdCl₂, 1% NaCl or 4 mM H₂O₂ for 24 h, followed by incubation in ddH₂O or HRW for 5 days on PDA or PDB medium to assess mycelial growth (a, c) and biomass (b). Data are mean ± SE from three independent experiments. Bars with different letters are significantly different at P < 0.05 according to Duncan’s multiple range test
