The induction of both enzymes’ activities and glutathioneconcentrations by 4-chlorophenol (xenobiotic), benzyl isothiocyanate (substrate),salicylic acid and 3-aminobutyric acid (elicitors) was shown. Salicylic acid treatment increased glutathione level, but did not decrease GSH/GSSG ratio. Theability of reed cannarygrass to adsorb 4-chlorophenol in the hydroponic culturewas demonstrated. The obtained results suggest that the reed cannarygrass hassignificant potential to conjugate xenobiotics with glutathione and it may beuseful for phytoremediation.}, title={Potential of Phalaris arundinacea L. for phytoremediation}, type={Text}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/Content/129801/PDF/POZN271_162512_biotechnologia-2003-no4-majorowicz.pdf}, keywords={biotechnology}, }
