Plants with a large number of stomata. The number of stomata in some plants

It is known that environmental pollution primarily affects the stomatal apparatus of plants. The main functions of the stomata are gas exchange and transpiration. Dysfunction of these stomata can lead to the death of leaves, and, in general, to the death of the entire plant (Lykshitova, 2013). We counted the number of stomata on the leaf blades of the studied plant species in key areas in comparison with the control. Research data are shown in Fig. 16.

Figure: 16 Number of stomata on leaf plates Ulmus pumila, Malus baccata, Syringa vulgarisper 1 mm І sheet area

Counting the number of stomata per unit area of \u200b\u200bthe leaf blade in woody plants growing in urban conditions showed that, indeed, when approaching the highway, the number of stomata increases. The influence of atmospheric pollution disrupts the integrity of the stomatal cells, and the guard cells of the stomata lose their ability to regulate the width of the stomatal gap.

With constantly open stomatal gaps, the consumption of moisture by the plant organism on physiological processes especially affects the intensity of transpiration.

A decrease in the total water content of tissues and an increase in the amount of bound water over the amount of free water may indicate the adaptation of plants to the conditions of the urban environment. Morphobiological indicators of woody plants, the percentage of dust pollution and the features of the fractional composition of water can be used as bioindication indicators of the urban environment.

From the presented figure it can be seen that in the control area the largest number of stomata is observed in the squat elm and is 138, in the apple tree -127, in the lilac -100. Under conditions of environmental pollution, the number of stomata on the leaf blades of all studied species increases sharply. This is a morphological adaptive adaptation to plant survival under conditions of atmospheric pollution. An increase in the number of stomata on leaf blades compensates for a decrease in leaf dispersion, as shown earlier. This is due to the fact that a decrease in leaf area leads to a reduction in the stomatal apparatus, therefore, an increase in the number of stomata with a decrease in the total area of \u200b\u200bleaf blades contributes to the preservation of the functions of gas exchange and leaf transpiration. Data on the number of stomata correlate well with data on leaf dispersion. As mentioned earlier, the greatest decrease in leaf dispersion was observed in the elm. The data on the number of stomata indicate that the decrease in the number of leaves per square meter in the elm was compensated by a sharper increase in the number of stomata. So, on average for three sites in the squat elm, the number of stomata increased in comparison with the reference site, by 321, while in apple and lilacs 175 and 106, respectively.

This indicates that the elm adapts well to adverse environmental conditions.

Thus, it can be noted that under the conditions of technogenic pollution of the atmosphere of the city of Ulan-Ude, both arboreal life forms (apple and elm) and shrubs (lilacs) adapt quite well to atmospheric pollution. In all species, morphological mechanisms of adaptation are activated. In conditions of more severe dust pollution, tree forms can be recommended - apple and elm.

Determination of the state of stomata in indoor plants

The leaf of the plant has various functions. It is the main organ in which photosynthesis, gas exchange and transpiration (evaporation of water) take place. To carry out gas exchange in the terrestrial organs of the plant, there are special formations - stomata.

The stomata, although part of the epidermis (leaf skin), are special groups of cells. The stomatal apparatus consists of two guard cells, between which there is a stomatal gap, 2–4 peri-stomatal cells, and an air-gas chamber located under the stomatal gap.

Stomatal guard cells have an elongated-curved, "bean-shaped" shape. Their walls, facing the stomatal fissure, are thickened. The stomatal cells are able to change their shape - due to this, the stomatal cleft opens or closes. These cells contain chloroplasts (green plastids). The opening and closing of the stomatal gap occurs due to a change in turgor (osmotic pressure) in the guard cells. The chloroplasts of the guard cells contain starch, which can be converted into sugar. When starch is converted to sugar, the osmotic pressure increases, and the stomata open. When the sugar content decreases, the opposite process occurs and the stomata close.

The stomatal slits are often wide open in the early morning and closed (or half closed) during the day. The number of stomata depends on environmental conditions (temperature, illumination, humidity). The degree of their opening at different times of the day varies greatly in different species. In the leaves of plants in wet habitats, the stomata density is 100–700 per 1 mm 2.

Most land plants have stomata only on the underside of the leaf. They can also be found on both sides of the leaf, as, for example, in cabbage or sunflower. At the same time, the density of the stomata on the upper and lower sides of the leaf is not the same: in cabbage 140 and 240 per 1 mm 2, and in sunflower 175 and 325 per 1 mm 2, respectively. In aquatic plants, for example, water lilies, stomata are located only on the upper side of the leaf with a density of about 500 per 1 mm 2. Underwater plants have no stomata at all.

Objective:

determination of the state of stomata in various indoor plants.

Tasks

1. To study the question of the structure, location and number of stomata in various plants in the additional literature.

2. Select plants for research.

3. Determine the state of the stomata, the degree of their opening in various indoor plants available in the biology office.

Materials and methods

The determination of the state of the stomata was carried out according to the method described in the "Methodical recommendations for plant physiology" (compiled by EF Kim and EN Grishina). The essence of the technique is that the degree of opening of the stomata is determined by the penetration of certain chemicals into the pulp of the leaf. For this purpose, various liquids are used: ether, alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, benzene, xylene. We used alcohol, benzene and xylene provided to us in the chemistry room. The penetration of these fluids into the pulp of the leaf depends on the degree of opening of the stomata. If, 2-3 minutes after applying a drop of liquid on the lower side of the leaf blade, a light spot appears on the leaf, this means that the liquid penetrates through the stomata. In this case, alcohol penetrates into the leaf only with wide open stomata, benzene - even with an average opening width, and only xylene penetrates through almost closed stomata.

At the first stage of the work, we tried to establish the possibility of determining the state of stomata (degree of opening) in various plants. Agave, Cyperus, Tradescantia, Geranium, Oxalis, Syngonium, Amazonian Lily, Begonia, Sanchecia, Dieffenbachia, Clerodendron, Passiflora, Pumpkin and Beans were used in this experiment. Oxalis, geranium, begonia, sanchetia, clerodendron, passionflower, pumpkin and beans were selected for further work. In other cases, the degree of stomatal opening could not be determined. This may be due to the fact that agave, cyperus, lily have rather hard leaves covered with a bloom, which prevents the penetration of substances through the stomatal gap. Another possible reason could be that by the time of the experiment (14:00) their stomata were already closed.

The study was conducted over a week. Every day after lessons, at 14.00, using the above method, we determined the degree of stomata opening.

Results and discussion

The data obtained are presented in the table. The given data are averaged because on different days, the state of the stomata was different. Thus, out of six measurements, wide stomatal opening was recorded twice in the oxalis, once in geranium, and the average degree of stomatal opening was recorded twice in begonia. These differences do not depend on the time of the experiment. Perhaps they are related to climatic conditions, although the temperature regime in the office and the illumination of the plants were fairly constant. Thus, the obtained averaged data can be considered a certain norm for these plants.

The research carried out indicates that the degree of stomata opening is not the same in different plants at the same time and under the same conditions. There are plants with wide open stomata (begonia, sanchezia, pumpkin), average size of the stomatal gap (oxalis, geranium, beans). Narrow stomatal slits are found only in clerodendron.

We regard these results as preliminary. In the future, we plan to establish whether and how biological rhythms differ in the opening and closing of stomata in different plants. For this, the timing of the state of the stomatal crevices will be carried out during the day.

INTRODUCTION

The city district of Togliatti is one of the most developing centers in Russia. The main sources of air pollution are the largest enterprises in the automotive industry, petrochemistry, the production of chemical fertilizers and building materials, thermal power plants and boiler houses, road and rail transport with a high density of traffic flows, and a river port. Additional - population growth, intensive development of residential and office buildings. An assessment of atmospheric air pollution in Togliatti revealed that the atmosphere of the Central District is the most polluted (2 and 1.3 times higher than the permissible), followed by the Komsomolsk District (2 and 1.1 times higher than the allowable), then the Avtozavodsk District (1, 9 times), the suburban area is minimally polluted (according to the FSBI "Privolzhskoe UGMS", 2015).

The high degree of pollution inherent in such cities leads to the weakening of some species of woody plants, their premature aging, reduced productivity, disease and pest damage, drying out and death. Betula pendula Roth, is a common arboreal species in urban areas

For resistant species of woody plants

features such as a larger number 1 2

stomata per 1 mm of leaf surface; shorter duration and degree of their openness during the day; large thickness of the cuticle and the presence of additional integumentary formations; less thickness and ventilation of the spongy parenchyma; lower value of the ratio of the height of the palisade tissue to the height of the spongy tissue.

Scientific research is needed to study the mechanisms of adaptation, growth and development of woody plants, as well as their survival rate under the negative anthropogenic impact of industrialized cities. Currently, work in the field of environmental monitoring is relevant, which includes chemical, physical and biological methods for assessing the quality of the environment. We carry out a comprehensive ecological and biological assessment of the state of urban woody plants. Using the ecological and biological assessment, it is possible to obtain specific data on the state of green spaces in the urban environment subject to anthropogenic and climatic influences. In the Samara region, the summer of 2010 was distinguished by three months of no rain, extreme dry air and, as a consequence, numerous fires that destroyed many hectares of the precious forest. Heat, temperature over 40 ° C, plus 45 ° C in the shade, plus 70 ° C on the ground, dry land at a depth of 3-6 m, constantly scorching sun, as well as reflected heat and light in the city. These factors influenced the plantations of Betula pendula Roth., Growing in the city and suburbs. Over the next years, a fact came to light that the individuals of Betula pendula Roth. continue to suffer and shrink. Therefore, the problem is especially acute in the effectiveness of this type of plant, on measures to restore the plantings of Betula pendula Roth. or replacement with other more resistant species, as well as stabilization of the ecological situation in the city.

MATERIAL AND METHOD

It is known that the processes of water evaporation (transpiration) and gas exchange in plants occur through the stomata. Air pollution affects the stomatal apparatus of plants, which leads to

dysfunction of stomata and plant death. By counting the number of stomata on the leaf blades and comparing it with the control, it is possible to obtain data indicating the state of the plant, its adaptive capacity, and also to identify places of increased pollution.

The study areas are located in the temperate continental climate zone with characteristic arctic and tropical air. In winter, this manifests itself in the form of severe frosts, and in summer - sharp fluctuations in temperature during the day. In the year, the average monthly air temperature in Togliatti varies from + 20.7 ° С in July to -11 ° С in January.

The aim of the study was to assess the state of Betula Pendula Roth, in the conditions of anthropogenic pollution of the city of Togliatti, using the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the leaf blades.

The studies were carried out in 2013-2014. on five experimental sites of two administrative districts in different types of plantings. In the Avtozavodsky district, these are the Industrial Zone and the Victory Park. In the Central District, these are Banykin Street and a suburban forest. The control site was located in the Uzyukovsky pine forest (25 km from the city limits).

The object of the study was Betula Pendula Roth, which grows in all districts of the city and outside the city limits. This is a plant species of the genus Birch (Betula), family Birch (Betulaceae). Fast growing tree species. It is very light-requiring, its crown is open, it lets in a lot of light.

The subject of the study is the quantitative indicator of the stomata of the leaf blade of Betula pendula Roth. This technique has been tested for Betula pendula Roth, which grows in conditions of various natural cenoses and intra-urban areas of the city of Omsk. Togliatti, Samara region.

The anatomical and physiological state of the leaf blades of the studied species was assessed in June, July and August by a method developed on the basis of standard techniques. The study of anatomical and physiological parameters was carried out by counting the number of stomata per 1 mm2 using a microscope. Mathematical processing of the obtained data was carried out using the Microsoft Office package - Microsoft Excel. Correlation analysis was used to interpret the results obtained.

Medium-aged plants were used for the analysis. The leaves were taken from the lower part of the crown, at the level of a raised hand, from the maximum number of available branches (from branches in different directions, conventionally - to the north, south, west, east), 10 leaves from each tree at each site. The leaves were taken about one, medium size for this species.

Stoma counts were performed under laboratory conditions. On the evaporating surface of the leaf prepared for the experiment, the leaf blades were made with a scalpel at right angles to the central vein, and superficial cuts were made every 2-3 mm and a thin layer of the epidermis was cut off. The epidermis of the leaf blade was placed in a drop of water on a glass slide, covered with a cover glass and examined under a light microscope at low magnification, and then the microscope was transferred to a higher magnification with a x40 objective, x16 eyepiece. At the same time, the focus was slightly changed with the microscrew in order to detect all the stomata in the area under consideration. The average number of stomata in the microscope field of view was determined by examining several (3-4) visual fields in different parts of the preparation. The number of stomata in the light spot was counted in three places on each leaf: on a mentally delineated line from the central vein to the edge of the leaf, two places were selected, and the third one was at the top of the leaf.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

The results of the study showed that Betula pendula Roth., Growing within the city - the Industrial Zone, Victory Park and Banykin Street has a greater number of stomata per 1

mm leaf surface, compared with suburban forest and control - Uzyukovsky bor. The maximum increase in the number of stomata per 1 mm2 of the leaf blade is observed in the Industrial Zone. When approaching highways, the number of stomata increases sharply. The obtained indicators of the number of stomata of leaf blades in 2014 are higher than in 2013. Due to the fact that 2014 was drier than 2013, the summer season of 2013 was characterized by frequent precipitation in the form of rain. A visual comparison of the sizes of stomata from leaves from different points of the city showed a visible decrease in their sizes as the air was polluted.

The integrity of stomatal cells is disturbed under the influence of chemical air pollution. Stomatal guard cells are unable to regulate the width of the stomatal cleft. From this, the stomata are constantly open and the plant's water consumption for transpiration increases. What does the plant do in such a situation? Increases the number of stomata on its leaf blades, thereby compensating for the decrease in leaf size. A decrease in the area of \u200b\u200bleaf blades irreversibly leads to a reduction in the stomatal apparatus, therefore, an increase in the number of stomata with a decrease in the total leaf area leads to the preservation of the functions of gas exchange and transpiration of leaf blades of Betula pendula Roth. The data obtained for two years of the study indicate that the decrease in the size of the leaf blades is compensated by the increase in the number of stomata. Compared to reference area 202

Terrestrial ecosystems

in the Industrial Zone 445 (an increase of 2.2 times was noted), in Victory Park 411 (an increase in 2 times), on Banykin Street 334 (1.6 times) and in the suburban forest 244 (1.2 times). From diagram

it can be seen that over the year the indicator of the number of stomata of leaf blades increased by an average of 3.5 times.

Figure: Results of the estimation of the number of stomata of the leaf Betula pendula Roth. for 2013-2014 CONCLUSION

Based on the calculations, it was calculated

average number of stomata per 1 mm of lamina. Prototypes were collected from various sites. Based on the results, a graph was built, on which the average data from different points of the study were expressed in a curved line, indicating an increase in the number of stomata with increasing air pollution. The experimental data obtained by us indicate that in g. Togliatti, in conditions of complex air pollution, increased exhaust gases from vehicles, a weakening of the vital state of Betula pendula Roth is observed, which is reflected in the deterioration of the anatomical and physiological characteristics of the leaves. However, an increase in the number of stomata on a leaf blade, a change in leaf area and weight, dispersion, and anatomy of the leaf should be considered as an adaptation of the Betula pendula Roth population to the conditions of technogenic pollution of the urban environment.

Betula pendula Roth, a highly adaptable species. But the anthropogenic load growing every year is so great that there are more dead individuals than adapted ones. It is clear that in order to improve the ecological situation in Togliatti, it is necessary to plant Betula pendula Roth, in places where there is no vegetation and there are roads with heavy traffic (for example, the Industrial Zone). The preservation of Betula pendula Roth specimens is just as necessary as the planting of young specimens, because the death of one plant species means a threat to the existence of 10 to 30 species of living beings.

Ecological and biological assessment of the state of woody plants according to various bioindication indicators should be used when

following the state of the plant and the urban environment.

This research work is devoted to the study of the water regime Betula pendula Roth. The evaluation was conducted according to a study of quantitative indicators of stomata of the leaf blades. Analyzing was conducted in the summer. It was found that in the early summer high performance water-holding capacity, and at the end of the summer, closer to the fall - low. These data show a strong dependence of the number of stomata on air pollution habitats studied species.

Key words: water regime, quantitative indicators of stomata, leaf blades, Betula pendula Roth., Developmental stability, anthropogenic, biotic and abiotic factors.
