| Abstract |
The development of a technique by which the sensitive tobacco variety, Bel W3 is used as a monitor for photochemical air pollution is discussed. The technique uses the plant as an indicator of the oxidant complex in both urban and rural areas. Two pilot studies that were conducted over a 3-year period during the development of the monitoring technique are included in the discussion. Attention is given to an explanation of the proper procedures for planting, transplanting, fertilizing, and caring for mature plants. The methods used in determining and recording injury to plant leaves is included; the studies showed almost daily injury to monitoring plants. (Author) |
