Advances in botanical research. Volume 18 /
This volume contains four reviews covering subjects of interest to a broad range of botanists. Saxe examines the effect of polluted air on photosynthesis and stomatal function, and the use of physiological and biochemical responses for early detection of injury caused by stress and air pollution.
