GENOTOXIC Cd AND Pb EFFECTS AND MODIFYING POTASSIUM HUMATE INFLUENCE ON WHEAT GROWING ON SOIL POLLUTED BY HEAVY METALS

N.S. Stepanchikova, L.N. Ul’yanenko, A.S. Filipas, S.V. Kruglov

In vegetation experiment the phyto- and genotoxic Cd and Pb action on the wheat plants of the Voronezhskaya 6 variety was studied. The authors estimated the potassium humate application, which is using usually for a presowing treatment of wheat seeds, with a view to increase the influence of heightened content of heavy metals in a soil.

Key words: wheat, heavy metals, soil contamination, Cd, Pb, phyto- and genotoxic effects, plant growth regulators, potassium humate.
