The ultrastructure of chloroplasts, content of photosynthetic pigments, and photochemical activity of maize (Zea mays L.) as influenced by different concentrations of the herbicide amitrole

Abstract

The effect of three different concentrations of bleaching herbicide amitrole affecting carotenogenesis, on chloroplast ultrastructure, photosynthetic pigment contents, and photochemical activity was studied in two maize genotypes.
