ResumoCorn and sunflower plants were grown in hydroponic culture and treated with various levels of Pb, Cd, Ni, and Tl salts. Net photosynthesis, transpiration and toxic metal ion concentration of leaf material and total plant biomass was measured. T1 was found to be the most toxic to net photosynthesis and growth of both species followed in order by Cd, Ni, and Pb.
