High resistance of Panicum miliaceum L. to phenanthrene toxicity based on growth response and antioxidant system assessment

<p>Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are a group of organic pollutants influencing different aspects of plants physiology. Physiological responses associated with the impact of phenanthrene (500, 1000, 1500, 2000 ppm) were analysed on Panicum miliaceum L. Seed germination was delayed in all tre...
