Ed Tech Press Plant Growth And Air Pollution (Hb 2025) by Ngai M
There is currently a lot of worry about how air pollutants, especially sulphur dioxide, ozone, and oxides of nitrogen, can change how plants function and impact growth patterns. Leaf cuticles are harmed by air contaminants, which also impact stomatal conductivity. Additionally, they may have an immediate impact on a plant's photosynthetic processes, leaf tenacity, and carbon allocation patterns. Pollutants interact with other environmental elements and can change regional patterns of plant-environment connections. McFall-Ngai summarises existing understanding of the impacts of air pollution on plant growth and physiology in this book and identifies new research avenues that are now being pursued in North America and Europe.
