Fluorescence Induction as a Biomarker of Creosote Phototoxicity to the Aquatic Macrophyte Lemna Gibba /

Fluorescence Induction as a Biomarker of Creosote Phototoxicity to the Aquatic Macrophyte Lemna Gibba /

Biomarkers of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) toxicity to aquatic plants were developed using the wood preservative creosote. We tested physiological indicators of photosynthetic performance in cultures of the floating aquatic macrophyte Lemna gibba (G3). Creosote was applied at concentrations...
