Abstract
LEAF DUST DEPOSITION AND ITS IMPACT ON CHLOROPHYLL CONTENT OF ANNONA SQUAMOSA
S. Santhi*, A. V. V. S Swamy and V. Subhashini
ABSTRACT
Seasonal variation in dust accumulation on leaves and Chlorophyll a, b and total chlorophyll content of leaves of species around crusher at study area. The impact of crusher dust was observed via biochemical attributes (chlorophyll contents) from leaves of Annona squamosa the result showed maximum dust deposition in winter moderate by summer and minimum rainy for plant species. It was seen that total chlorophyll decreased with the increasing dust load of selected crusher dusted plant species the result shows significant correlation (negative) between dust load and pigment content in all three seasons. Thus plants can be used in the subsiding of crusher dust pollution by acting as natural filters.
