Description
Summary:During recent years the deterioration of ecological conditions in many regions was increased interest to the effects of heavy metals on plants. The influence of heavy metals ions compatible with the new Ukrainian plant growth regulator Treptolem on the phenolic contents on Brassica napus and Helianthus annuus plants were explored. Increase of quantity phenolic compounds in rape and sunflower plants under influence of zinc and copper ions was established. In variants with heavy metals ions compatible with Treptolem the content of phenolic compounds increased as compared with variants with metals. To reduce the influence of stress factors of natural and anthropogenic origin, it is appropriate to use plant growth regulators. In particular, the use of treptolem can reduce the damaging effects of heavy metals towards plants.
