| Description | Diclofenac (DCF; 0.1 to 10 mg/L) accumulated in roots of 20-day-old pea and maize plants caused a decrease in their biomass and changes in morphology. Contents of H2O2 and superoxide increased in both species. Activity of antioxidant defence mechanisms was elevated in pea under low DCF treatments, but decreased in maize under all treatments. Oxidative injury of root cells expressed as lowered oxidoreductase activity together with the membrane integrity disruption confirmed higher sensitivity of maize as a monocot plant to DCF. |
