Abstract/Contents:Briefly summarizes the history of atmospheric ozone research, describing its discovery and its relationship to air pollution. Focuses on ground level ozone (O3), and the causes for its formation: man, lightning, and the sun. Discusses the effects of vehicular emissions on ground level ozone. States that "both acute and chronic O3 exposures can result in symptoms of foliar injury on sensitive plants." States that the most common indicator plants include "tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) cv. Bel-W3 (O3-sensitive) and cv. Bel-B (O3-tolerant). Describes how ozone "causes negative effects on a number of plant processes, including photosynthesis, water use efficiency, rate of senescence, dry matter production, flowering, pollen tube extension, and yield." Also describes how some plants tolerate ozone. Suggests that the "understanding of mechanisms that limit O3 injury could benefit from studies on the molecular aspects of plant-pathogen interactions." States that "O3 can decrease the incidence of diseases caused by obligate parasites, while increasing the problems associated with facultative parasites." Briefly states that the "chronic effects of O3 on tree populations have consequences to aesthetic and recreational aspects of our national forests and national parks." Discusses the alteration of plant community structure and biodiversity due to ozone. Emphasizes the importance for the studying of ozone effects on plants in a "chamberless ambient environment, where cost-benefit policies are involved" and in the Southern Hemisphere.
