Sunflower Plants as Bioindicators of Environmental Pollution with Lead (II) Ions

Sunflower Plants as Bioindicators of Environmental Pollution with Lead (II) Ions

In this study, the influence of lead (II) ions on sunflower growth and biochemistry was investigated from various points of view. Sunflower plants were treated with 0, 10, 50, 100 and/or 500 µM Pb-EDTA for eight days. We observed alterations in growth in all experimental groups compared with non-tre...
