Effect of High Voltage on Texture, Color and Growth of Aloe vera Leaves

With the growth in transmission lines all over the world an evident observation comes in front regarding the effect of high voltage on the plants. High-voltage transmission lines are used to transmit electric power over long distances. High voltage may have positive or negative effects on plants and other living beings. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of high voltage on Aloe vera plants with respect to changes in texture, colour, and growth of leaves after exposure to high voltage for different durations. This plant is chosen due to its various properties and uses in dermatology. The leaves of this plant contain a soothing thick sap that is valuable for healing and curing of wounds and diseases .Images of exposed as well as unexposed Aloe vera leaves were taken and analysed over a period of ten days. Other control variables like temperature, humidity, sun light were maintained almost the same for all observations.
