Title

EVALUATION OF GERMINATION, GROWTH AND CHLOROPHYLL CONTENT OF RUBINIA PSEUDOACACIA L. AS AFFECTED BY PETROLEUM POLLUTION

Pages

  41-53

Abstract

 In oil producing countries, soil contamination by petroleum is one of the most important environmental pollutions. Crude oil can leak into the soil during extraction purification and transportation. The soil pollution could damage the environment as well as plant and animal populations. In this study, effects of different concentration of crude oil (0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10% w/w) on germination, growth and CHLOROPHYLLs content in Rubinia pesudoacacia was investigated. The results showed that the germination rate and radicle lengths decreased significantly (p≤0.05) with increasing concentrations of petroleum. The growth parameters such as plant length, leaf number, leaf area, root and aerial part fresh and dry weight of plants decreased progressively from 1-4% crude oil in soil. In concentrations higher than 4% no growth was observed. The highest total leaf area of 503 cm2 was found in the control plant and least was found in the 4% soil (13 cm2) after 12 weeks. The cholorophyll b content progressively decreased from 1-4% crude oil in soil. The highest CHLOROPHYLL a content was measured for 2% plants. These results seemed to suggest that crude oil induced environmental stress in seedlings.
