Abstract Four hybrids of maize and seven cultivars of wheat were exposed to relatively low concentrations of sulfur dioxide (0.1 to 0.6 ppm) for up to 100 hours. Maize was found to be tolerant to sulfur dioxide and only minor differences were observed in dry mass, foliar injury, and total sulfur concentration. Total sulfur was found to be an inadequate estimator of sulfur dioxide dose. Wheat was less tolerant than maize and differences in sensitivities among cultivars were observed. Era spring wheat was most tolerant and Arrow winter wheat was most sensitive.
