Hyperaccumulation and hypertolerance of Trace Metal Elements (TME) like Cd Zn are highly variable in pseudo-metallophytes species. In this study we compared the impact high or concentration on photosynthetic apparatus Arabidopsis arenosa halleri growing same contaminated site Piekary Slaskie southern Poland. Plants were grown hydroponic culture for 6 weeks, then treated with 1.0 mM 5.0 5 days. Chlorophyll a fluorescence pigment content measured after 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, days plants control...
Hormesis, which describes the stimulatory effect of low doses toxic substances on growth, is a well-known phenomenon in plant and animal kingdoms. However, mechanisms that are involved this still poorly understood. We performed preliminary studies corn coleoptile sections, showed positive correlation between stimulation growth by Cd or Pb an increase auxin H2O2 content sections. Subsequently, we grew seedlings hydroponic culture tested wide range concentrations order to determine hormetic...
In earlier ecophysiological studies that were conducted on Arabidopsis halleri plants, scientists focused the mechanisms of Cd and Zn hyperaccumulation but did not take into consideration environmental factors can significantly affect physiological responses plants in situ. this study, we investigated A. was growing two nonmetalliferous three metalliferous sites, which characterized by different conditions. We compared these populations order to find differences within metallicolous...
Abstract The aim of the research was to compare impact short-term deprivation selected macronutrients (Ca, K, Mg and P) on photosynthetic characteristics, transpiration pigment content in maize. strongest inhibition photosynthesis caused by a Mg, which visible as decrease rates, stomatal conductance, photosystem II (PSII) performance, chlorophyll flavonol with simultaneously increased anthocyanins. In K-deprived plants, rate observed. However, conductance did not differ significantly...
Silver birch trees (Betula pendula Roth) are a pioneering species in post-industrial habitats, and have been associated with an expansive breeding strategy low habitat requirements. We conducted ecophysiological dendroclimatological studies to check whether there any features of which the modification enables colonise extreme habitats successfully. characterised efficiency photosynthetic apparatus, gas exchange, content pigments leaves, growth (leaf thickness tree-ring width) on post-coal...
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect autochthonous microorganisms present in soil collected from heavy metal (HM) uncontaminated (Pb ≈ 59 mg kg−1, Cd 0.4 Zn 191 kg−1), moderately 343 12 1876 and highly 1586 57 3280 kg−1) contaminated sites on Zea mays elemental composition, physiological status, growth parameters. For purpose, half sterilized characterization performed. After 45 days cultivation, presence HM negatively affected photosynthesis transpiration rates, relative...
Pseudometallophytes are commonly used to study the evolution of metal tolerance and accumulation traits in plants. Within Arabidopsis genus, adaptation halleri metalliferous soils has been widely studied, which is not case for closely related species arenosa. We performed an in-depth physiological comparison between A. arenosa populations from same polluted site, together with geographically close non-metallicolous (NM) both species. The ionomes, growth, photosynthetic parameters pigment...
