PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSE OF EUCALYPTUS ROSTRATA TO HEAVY METAL AIR POLLUTION
The physiological response of Eucalyptus rostrata due to exposure to heavy metal air pollutants was investigated. The heavy metals Cu, Cd, Fe, and Pb were applied to the above ground parts of the plants, under greenhouse conditions. The metal contents were proportional to the metal concentration in the sprayed solutions. Increasing sprayed metal concentrations was found to have an important ... Read more
