Title

Study of Air Pollution Tolerance Index (APTI) of Some Plants In Vasai-Virar location (Palghar district)

Abstract

The 20th century has been the era of industries and their industrial growth with sharp increase in vehicular population, which has caused a serious change in the atmospheric system. As plants are immobile, they are continuously being exposed to the environment, therefore they show changes depending on their sensitivity level. The tolerance level of any plant species is mainly dependent on its physiological and morphological characteristics. Various types of biotic, abiotic and physical factors control plant life, including temperature, humidity, soil chemistry, pH, oxygen levels and salinity. It is well known that the plants change it’s characteristics in various locations depending upon its adaptability and various environmental factors, due to this plants species shows different tolerability in different locations or region. In the present work an attempt was made to study the Air pollution tolerance index of some plants growing in the Vasai-Virar areas, in Palghar district of Maharashtra. It was observed that out of the five common plants studied, air pollution tolerance index (APTI) was found to be maximum in Ficus religiosa (L.) i.e 9.040 and minimum in Bauhinia purpurea (L.) Another observation made was that in most of the plants studied, APTI value was found to be higher in the plants collected from control site.

Key Words
