Abstract:
:Enzymes of phase I and phase II of the xenobiotic detoxication pathway (ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase, peroxidases, microsomal and soluble glutathione-S-transferases) were measured in roots, stems, and leaves of Phragmites australis, revealing different enzyme activities in these parts. Highest enzyme activities were measured in the root followed by the leaf. Enzyme activities detected in the stem were low compared with those in the root and leaf. The high detoxication capacity of the root and the leaf might be due to very high exposure to xenobiotics and to the high levels of metabolism in these cormus parts. The function of the stem of Phragmites is mainly transportation, so a high detoxication level is not useful, as indicated by the low enzyme activities.
