“…Some of this variation is due to geographical location. Cetin, Sevik, and Yigit () gave a mean density of 198 per mm 2 across Turkey with individual stomata 24.29 × 16.23 μm in size. However, they varied from 298 per mm 2 , 16.55 × 9.54 μm in the temperate ecoregion (Central Anatolia) to 177 per mm 2 , 37.28 × 27.02 μm in the Mediterranean ecoregion, to 118 per mm 2 , 19.03 × 11.30 μm in the high precipitation of the Black Sea ecoregion.…”

“…Some of this variation is due to geographical location. Cetin, Sevik, and Yigit (2018) Boldt and Rank (2010) found density to vary from 146 per mm 2 at the base of the crown to 321 per mm 2 in the middle and 322 per mm 2 at the top. Boldt and Rank (2010) also found that stomata can vary in size within a leaf, with 3%-10% of the stomata being "giant"-sized, reaching 25 to >40 μm long, mixed with those c. 20 μm long.…”

Biological Flora of the British Isles:Aesculus hippocastanum

This account presents information on all aspects of the biology of Aesculus hippocastanum L. (horse‐chestnut) that are relevant to understanding its ecological characteristics and behaviour. The main topics are presented within the standard framework of the Biological Flora of the British Isles: distribution, habitat, communities, responses to biotic factors, responses to environment, structure and physiology, phenology, floral and seed characters, herbivores and disease, history and conservation. Aesculus hippocastanum is a large deciduous tree native to the Balkan Peninsula. Native populations are small (<10,000 trees total) and apparently in decline, but the tree has been widely planted in gardens and streets across Europe and other temperate areas from the 17th century onwards. It was voted the UK's favourite tree in a 2017 poll. As a British neophyte, it is occasionally naturalised in open wooded habitats. Horse‐chestnut is renowned for the beauty of its large (up to 30 cm long), upright panicles of white flowers, and for the large seeds (up to 42 g each) used in the formerly common children's game of “conkers.” More recently, the triterpene glycosides, extractable from various plant parts but especially the seeds, have been widely used in medicine. In much of Europe, horse‐chestnut is affected by chestnut bleeding canker (caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. aesculi), the horse‐chestnut leaf miner Cameraria ohridella and the leaf blotch fungus Guignardia aesculi. The canker is likely to lead to death of <10% individuals, but seeds of plants infested with the leaf miner are 40%–50% smaller, which may affect long‐term establishment in non‐planted areas.

“…The plants indoor are affected by solar radiation. This leads to climate change in the environment as well as forest, coastal, and urban areas [38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46]. A recent study shows that carbon emissions affect thermal comfort and lead to climate change problems [56][57][58][59][60].…”

Environmental snags generate an instantaneous threat to human welfare and lead to death. Climate change and environmental devastation are further augmented, which lead to natural disasters [1]. Starting from the agricultural age towards the industrial age, transformed man-made activities seriously affected the natural environment. The negative implications of man-made activities lead to the total destruction of the natural environment. In 1986, the Greenhouse effect was identified by Svante Ahrrenius [2]. In the modern era, there is a serious global warming consensus due to the rapid increase in GHGs. Global warming (climate change) is one of the most serious problems, caused by the emission of combustion of oil, coal and natural gas (fossil fuels), resulting in the quick rise in greenhouse gases-especially the CO 2 that is deteriorating the environment. Nowadays, environment degradation is a problem that falls under mutual but distinguished duties because its preys are not inevitably only those who are accountable for eliciting the problem by excessive greenhouse emissions since the Industrial Revolution. Pakistan is a firm smash by climate change. Nonetheless,

“…Plants accumulate some of the heavy metals in their bodies via soil or air; and by determining the level of this accumulation, data on heavy metal pollution in soil or air can be obtained [4,12]. Therefore, the leaves of large plants [16][17][18][19], body shells [20], woods [21] and fruits [22] are used as biomonitors.…”

Heavy metals are one of the most infamous air pollutants. They do not deteriorate easily in nature and they tend to bioaccumulate in nature. Because of their significance in terms of potential damage to human and environmental wellbeing, the monitoring of heavy metal pollution and identifying risk-prone regions is of great importance. Bioindicators are the most important determinants of the change in the concentration of heavy metals in the atmosphere. While plants play the biggest and most important role in reducing pollution in all of its types, they are also the ideal bioindicators. However, some plant species are better equipped to detect heavy metal accumulation than others. This study aims to determine the usability potential of Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris) in monitoring traffic-based heavy metal concentrations. For this purpose, samples of Scotch pine individuals were collected from one of the busiest highways in Turkey (along the Ankara-Istanbul route) from refuges at roadsides and at distances of 3m, 10m, 30m, 50m, and 100m from the roadside. Some of the branches and needles of the samples were also subjected to washing processes and the changes of Ni, Cr and Zn concentrations were determined for these samples. The change of Ni, Cr and Zn concentrations depending on the distance to the road, washing conditions and organelle were evaluated separately. We determined that Scotch pine is a good biomonitor-especially for monitoring changes in Cr concentrations.
