Abstract
The primary purpose of this study was to develop stress-ethylene production from plant seedlings as a simple, rapid and quantitative bioassay for detecting phytotoxic air pollutants. The developed procedure was to require only small quantities of gas for phytotoxic testing, have minimum cultural and space needs, be easily standardized for comparison of results from diverse testing laboratories, and provide an unbiased estimate of phytotoxic activity.
