HISTO-ANATOMICAL CHANGES OF THE HORSE-CHESNUT’S LEAVES (AESCULUS HIPPOCASTANUM L.) UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ATMOSPHERE POLLUTANTS
Abstract
Our investigations have focused on observations concerning the horse-chesnut’s (Aesculus hippocastanum L.) leaves in various phenophases, the state of the leaf surfaces and histo-anatomical changes of the leaves under the influence of the atmosphere pollutants (sulphur dioxide, chlorine, ammoniac, lime or cement powders). The histo-anatomical changes induced by the gaseous and solid atmosphere pollutants on the lamina have been observed in protecting tissues, assimilator tissues (the palisade and the spongy tissue), vascular and mechanical tissues. Some leaves presented disorders in all the component tissues, while in others, the structure changes have only appeared in part of the lamina.
