Aquatic macrophytes are important components of aquatic systems, which may be adversely affected by creosote contamination. Several chemicals that are constituents of creosote are known to affect cell membranes in various organisms...
Due to the importance of submersed, rooted macrophytes to the aquatic ecosystem and the use of creosote impregnated structures adjacent to or within water bodies, a study was conducted using an axenic culture of Myriophyllum spicatum to determine the effect of creosote on this aquatic macrophyte. Four plants were cloned and exposed to nominal creosote concentrations ranging from 0.16 to 200 mg/l for...
