RESPONSE OF PLANTS TO ENHANCED UV-B RADIATION AND SO2
|
Abstract:
Acid rain, greenhouse effect and depletion of earth's stratospheric ozone layer are most serious environmental problems in the world at present. Both plant and animal life are greatly affected by enhanced UV-B radiation due to destruction of ozone layer and by continued aggregation of SO2 in air. A brief of the studies in the last two decades concerned with the effects of the two stress factors on plants are presented.
