Journal ArticleDOI
Responses of grass pea seedlings to salinity stress in in vitro culture conditions
TL;DR: Exposure to NaCl stress significantly reduced length of grass pea seedling organs but did not influence the content of dry weight in shoots and increased it in the roots in two cases, while increasing salt concentration decreased integrity of cellular membranes both in root and shoot tissues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of PEG generated osmotic stress on shoot regeneration and some biochemical parameters in Lathyrus culture
TL;DR: Examining the effect of low water potential generated by polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 on seed germination, shoot regeneration and some biochemical parameters related to drought stress found that an increased concentration of PEG in the media caused a decrease in the multiplication rate and vigour of newly regenerated shoots.
Journal ArticleDOI
The acclimatization strategies of kidney vetch (Anthyllis vulneraria L.) to Pb toxicity.
Barbara Piwowarczyk,Krzysztof Tokarz,Ewa Muszyńska,Wojciech Makowski,Roman J. Jędrzejczyk,Zbigniew Gajewski,Ewa Hanus-Fajerska +6 more
TL;DR: To determine the survival strategy of kidney vetch exposed to high lead concentrations, an acclimatization mechanism based on maintaining the high efficiency of photosynthetic apparatus resulting from increasing of electron transport rate was described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response of Dionaea muscipula J. Ellis to light stress in in vitro: physiological study
TL;DR: Higher concentration of plumbagin observed for the first time in response to different light quality and quantity, suggests that plumberagin is involved in photoprotection and/or in the antioxidant activity in Venus Flytrap tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
From laboratory to field studies - The assessment of Biscutella laevigata suitability to biological reclamation of areas contaminated with lead and cadmium.
Ewa Muszyńska,Ewa Hanus-Fajerska,Barbara Piwowarczyk,Joanna Augustynowicz,Krystyna Ciarkowska,Tomasz Czech +5 more
TL;DR: The main novelty of the work was to prove that in vitro-multiplied shoots of B. laevigata - the representative of native flora from Olkusz Ore-Bearing Region - can be successfully implemented in situ for the restoration of these degraded area.
