The Adaptive Ability of Some Woody Plants Growing Under Anthropogenic Influence

Stomatal apparatus of plants and its role in determining the quality of atmospheric air, assessment of indicators of anatomical and physiological characteristics of leaves of some tree species growing in the zone of negative impact from a high-risk enterprise, the relationship of quantitative indicators of stomata and the dynamics of changes in their size with the level of pollution of the air basin, determination of the ability of Betula pendula Roth., Populus balsamifera, Acer negundo, Acer platanoides to adapt to adverse environmental conditions. As a result of the conducted research, it was revealed that the length and width of stomata depends on the environmental conditions of growth, and the number of stomata per 1 mm² increases with increasing anthropogenic load. The determination of anatomical and morphological parameters of the tree species by the phytoindication method used in the study will help ensure the reliability of the results in the field of environmental monitoring. The identification of breeds with the most pronounced adaptive ability will help in choosing an assortment of woody plants to create protective strips and landscaping areas affected by anthropogenic factors.
