Effects of Glyposate on Starch Accumulation, Chlorophyll and Enzyme Activity of Duckweed (Lemna minor L.)
Abstract
In
this study effects of glyphosate on L.minor,
collected fresh water and drainage
water from agricultural land in Erzurum were investigated. This
experiment consist of two stages, the first stage of plant acclimation before
glyphosate treatment for 2 weeks and the later stage of plant was treated with
different concentration of glyphosate (0.48, 2.4, 4.8 and 19.2 gL-1).
NH3-N, NO-3-N, NO-2-N
and PO4-P concentrations in water and starch content (%), Chl-a and
Chl-b concentration differences at p<0.05
were considered as statistically significant. Catalyse enzyme activity
exhibited change depend on glyphosate treatment. A mount of chlorophyll-a and
chlorophyll-b were degreased in depend on higher glyposate concentration.
Starch accumulation was calculated the highest value at dose 19.2 gL-1
(11.18%) and the lowest value at 0.48 gL-1 dose (11.15%). With the
survivor rate reduce when glyposate dose increase but these not the stop on
starch accumulation and enzyme activity. According to the present study, L. minor was found as a natural
purification method for the removal of glyphosate.
