Physiological and Anatomical Response of Plant Leaf Tissue to Designated Air Pollutants.
Abstract
A series of 22 experiments were conducted to determine the effects of hydrochloric acid (HC1) on the morphology, physiology, and metabolic processes of plants exposed to HC1 mists. These studies were designed to elucidate the mechanisms which produce tissue damage. Histological, cytological and fine structural characteristics of plants exposed to HC1 are described. Photosynthetic, respiratory and metabolic mechanisms for recorder from oxidant were also investigated.
