Figurę 3.2 Oxidative stress markcrs (MDA content, superoxide dismutasc |SOD], catalase |CAT| and ascorbatc peroxidase |APX|) in an agricułtural stream phytoplankton community after a 96 hours exposure to various concentrations of
glyphosate-bascd herbicide.
3.6.5 Diversity index
A simple regression test between the Shannon diversity indcx (//’) and the glyphosate concentrations indicates that the diversity of the phytoplankton community sampled in the Dumontier stream, (Boisbriand, Ouebec, Canada) decreased with the increasing glyphosate concentrations (figurę 3.3).
