Abstract
|
|
|
Phytotoxic effects of ozone and ethylenediurea (EDU) on soybean (Glycine max) and spinach (Spinacia oleracea) were observed by using open-top field chamber system (OTC). Gas exchange rates (photosynthesis, stomatal conductance and transpiration rates) of soybean plants were decreased by 20% to 30% by ambient ozone and resulted in 30% reductio of seed yields. In OTC, ambient ozone and 0.12 §¡/§¤ O_3 decreased gas exchange rates of spinach by 25% to 40% and by 50%, respectively. The protective effect of EDU against ozone induced injury was obtained at 100 §·/§¤ on soybean, and at 250 §·/§¤ on spinach, respectively. The excessive application of EDU, however, inhibited photosynthesis, transpiration, and stomatal conductance without any specific visible damage.
