    Abstract:
    Introduced research was connected with exposure of liverword Marchantia polymorpha in selected places in the area of Krakow. Places differing in regard to average concentration of air pollution [especially for (synergistic) effects NO2 and SO2]. Purpose of research was to check correlation between exposure to different concentrations of NO2 and SO2 (in regard to their synergistic effects) and possible differences in dynamics of growth of M. polymorpha. Samples of M. polymorpha located in soil, which was standardly analysed (in regard to contents of trace elements) before and after exposure. Research was simultaneously performed with similar exposure culture in vitro of Petunia hybrida. To growing tissues of petunia was used standard Murashige & Skoog medium and was protected against infections (with using filter of fibre). Described biomonitoring was completed by measurements of concentration of NO2 and SO2 by passive method with use of samplers of Amaya and Krochmal, in the same places, where was located exposure of plants. Observed was inhibition of growth in places, where was high concentration both gases.
