Article Description

The air pollutants such as gaseous, aerosols, and dust affect directly andindirectly on plant leaves with or without visible damage. The leaf is a partof the plant that first and most exhibits visible symptoms of injuryand that can serve as a bioindicator for tolerance of the species. Nevertheless,even without visible injuries, biochemical, physiological, and cellular changescan take place to mitigate stress and the ample use of the plant's internalresources. Typically under ambient air pollution tree plants adapt throughleaf blade modifications. Evaluation of leaf alterations in plants exposed toair pollution is an important task for biological monitoring and mitigationstrategies.The aim of study is to evaluate leaf blade morphology and structureamendments under industrial air pollution for deciduous trees most applied inurban planting: Acer campestre L, Acer negundo L, Acer saccharinum L,Acer tataricum L, Acer negundo L., Fraxinus americana L, Morus alba L,Platanus acerifolia Willd.
