Measurement of Growth, Photosynthesis and Transpiration Rates of a Malaysian Local Rice Cultivar (Mr 219) for Assessing Ambient Ozone Stress
Ambient air pollution has been shown to reduce the yield of several major crops species. Research and field observations have suggested that O3 may responsible for up to 90% of tlie crop loss induces by air pollutants. One approach that has been used to estimate effects of ozone 011 yield is by d...

Ambient air pollution has been shown to reduce the yield of several major crops
species. Research and field observations have suggested that O3 may responsible for
up to 90% of tlie crop loss induces by air pollutants. One approach that has been
used to estimate effects of ozone 011 yield is by determination critical Oj levels
cumulated exposure over tlie threshold of 49 ppb ( ~ 0 7 4 0 ) . Thc AOT40 is
calculated as tlie sum of'tlie differences between the hollrly ozone concentrations in
