Abstract:
The present study is mainly focused on effect of environmental pollution on leaf properties of selected plants, Azadiracta indica, Catharanthus roseus, Calotropis procera, Tabernaemontana divaricata and Nerium oleander are collected from polluted and non-polluted areas. The plants have been selected randomly based on population in and around Coimbatore. The study revealed that there is decrease in stomatal size and increase in density of leaves from highly polluted sites. This is contributing adverse impact on leaf properties like chlorophyll content, stomatal density, stomatal index and growth in the selected plants
