Effect of cadmium on growth of vegetative thallus and development of generative organs of Chara vulgaris L. after short time of cultivation

The effect of cadmium ions in two different concentrations 10(-8)M and 10(-6)M on vegetative thallus, male (antheridia) and demale (oogonia) generative organs of Chara vulgaris L. was investigated. After 9 days of growth in a presence of cadmium the number of lateral branches decreased and the lengt...

Description
Summary:The effect of cadmium ions in two different concentrations 10(-8)M and 10(-6)M on vegetative thallus, male (antheridia) and demale (oogonia) generative organs of Chara vulgaris L. was investigated. After 9 days of growth in a presence of cadmium the number of lateral branches decreased and the lengths of internodes of the main axis and pleuridia became shortened. The increase in oospores volume and decrease in antheridial volume after 3, 7 and 9 days of cultivation were observed
