The effect of oil pollution on the activity of physiological and biochemical processes in Triticum aestivum L. and the number of rhizospheric microbiota

The article presents the results of a study of the effect of oil pollution on the biochemical and morphometric parameters of the plant Triticum aestivum L., as well as a change in the number of rhizospheric microorganisms capable of degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons. It was shown that under the influence of pollution in plants increased the activity of redox enzymes. A significant increase in hydrocarbon-oxidizing bacteria and fungi was recorded in the rhizosphere.
