| Abstract | Air quality biomonitoring using plant leaves has been widely applied to assess the effects of atmospheric pollution. The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of gaseous hydrogen fluoride on the tree leaves of Prunus dulcis and Olea europaea around a phosphate fertilizer-producing factory constituting a major source of pollution. The photosynthesis rate, damaged leaf areas, fluoride accumulation, stomatal architecture and some biochemical responses in the leaves of O. europaea and P. dulcis, were measured. Based on visible injury, gas exchange, stomata responses and certain biochemical parameters, P. dulcis was a sensitive species, and O. europaea was tolerant. Our studies showed that fluoride had a potential effect on stomatal plasticity and confirmed the presence of different control mechanisms for pollution on each leaf surface. It was observed that evergreen tree species highly tolerated fluoride pollutants present in the air, and therefore can be effective in reducing pollutants concentration to a safer level in the environment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
