The present study investigated the effect of arsenic (As) on photosynthesis and other selected physiological parameters in two ferns. The ferns (Pteris cretica ‘Albo-lineata’ and ‘Parkerii’) subjected to As doses of 100 and 250 mg kg–1 for three months, showed different As accumulation, which was higher in Albo-lineata. Overall, the obtained results indicated significant differences between studied ferns. The individual effects of As and growing period on all parameters were very variable. However, As doses generally caused a decrease of net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, transpiration rate, maximum quantum yield of PSII, and photosynthetic pigments. The sampling period effect was significant for magnesium content of Parkerii (decrease) and contents of photosynthetic pigments of Albo-lineata (increase) and Parkerii (decrease). Results showed that Parkerii had higher sensitivity to As doses than Albo-lineata, which was also reflected by the higher free glycine content and its increase by As doses.
