Diversity of Metabolism and Vulnerability of Native and Introduced Species of the Genus Salix L. under the Conditions of Aerotechnogenous Contamination
L. A. ZAKHAROVA, L. A. BARAKHTENOVA
Abstract
It is demonstrated that aerotechnogenous contamination exerts a certain influence on the water, sulphur and nitrogen metabolism and, as a consequence, on the vulnerability of leaves (loss of turgor, chloroses, necroses) of native and introduced species of the genus Salix L. Both specific and non-specific reactions of plants to the atmosphere pollution have been found. The former consist in various directions of the plant metabolism: in S. ledebourian
