Due to increased urbanization and industrialization, the emission of toxic material into the
atmosphere is in expansion, which has a negative impact on the environment and human health. In
this research, we monitored the effect of air pollution on the peroxidase (POD) activity and total
antioxidant capacity of different tree species during the growing season. The main goal was to
determine which tree species developed the highest tolerance to unfavorable environmental
conditions at the end of growing season, based on the response of their antioxidative metabolism. The
greatest change in POD activity was observed in the Fagus sylvatica L. leaves, where enzyme activity
was more than doubled in the autumn, in comparison to spring. On the other hand, decrease in POD
activity was the greatest in Cedrus atlantica (Endl.) Manetti ex Carrière needles. Moreover, total
antioxidative capacity was altered during growing season in almost all examined tree species. The
Magnolia spp. showed... the most consistent response to the given environmental pollution with both
portrayed parameters induced during growing season. In general, we can conclude that the tree
species investigated in this research possess distinctive tolerance potential to air pollutants.
