Plant peroxidases (class III peroxidases) are present in all land plants. They are members of
a large multigenic family. Probably due to this high number of isoforms, and to a very …

The study examined the air pollution tolerance indices (APTI) of six plant species around
Otorogun gas plant in Ughelli-South Local Government Area of Delta State. Four …

Bio monitoring studies are extremely relevant in the field of air pollution science in relation to
urban ecosystem restoration. The present study was designed in order to assess the dust …

To evaluate the effects on biochemicals, antioxidants, immune responses and disease
resistance of the snakehead fish, following exposure to deltamethrin at 0.061, 0.121, 0.242 …

Green belts are effective tools for mitigation of traffic generated noise. For green belt
development it is necessary that plants used for green belts must be tolerant to air pollution …

In any contaminated environment, the sensitive plant species can serve as bio-indicator of
air pollution while tolerant plant species can act as a sink for air pollutants. Air pollution …

Various plant species of green belt in urban traffic area help to reduce air pollution and
beautify the city environment. Those plant species growing healthily under long-term …

Abstract Class III peroxidases (POXs; EC. 1.11. 1.7), are secretory, multifunctional plant
enzymes that catalyze the oxidation of a variety of substrates by hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O …

It is well established that trees help to reduce air pollution, and there is a growing impetus for
green belt expansion in urban areas. Identification of suitable plant species for green belts is …

The effectiveness of tree species as bioindicators/biomonitors depends on appropriate
selection based on their tolerance and sensitivity to air pollution, which is usually evaluated …
