Changes Germination, Growth and Anatomy Vicia ervilia in Response to Light Crude Oil Stress

Abstract

Thepetroleum concentrations are contaminant important sources in the environment.Hydrocarbon’s contaminants depend on their type and concentration can cause variable toxicity insoils, on the other hand, different kinds of plants also response concentration of contaminantdifferently, because of the diversity of physiological and morphological characteristics. In this studythe effect of different concentrations of light crude oil was investigated on stem length, germinationand anatomical of Vicia ervilia. A factorial experiment was used with a randomized complete blockdesign (RCBD) with three replications. The results showed that the germination and stem lengthsdecreased significantly (p≤ ) with increasing concentrations of petroleum. Anatomical studiesthe changes of parenchyma, vascular bundles, epidermal and increase crack showed.
