peroxidase (APx) in P. oceanica leaves collected in 2010, at S. Marinella (SM) and Monterosso
(M) meadows. Mean values are based on at least 10 independent determinations and bars
indicate standard deviations.
A protocol for the spectrophotometric determination of Chlorophylls a and b
and total Carotenoids was also applied for the first time on P. oceanica leaves.
Preliminary data collected on S. Marinella and Monterosso 2010 samples are
reported in table 3.5.
