Abstract
Lead is one of the priority soil pollutants among heavy metals. To increase the species diversity of ecosystems, it is necessary to increase the resistance of plants to lead. The aim of the work was to obtain plants resistant to lead. The objects of our study were to lawn grasses. The effect of lead on the growth and regenerative ability of calli was determined. The results of this work showed that lead is less toxic to calli than copper. Biotechnological method for obtaining lead resistant plants has been developed. The effect of lead on the growth of regenerants and original plants was determined. Agrostis stolonifera plants that are obtained after cell selection have demonstrated a high degree of resistance to lead. Can the developed technology be used for other lawn grasses? We obtained lead resistant plants Festuca rubra. Therefore, using cell selection can increase the tolerance of lawn grasses to lead.
