Plant Response to Air Pollution

An examination of air pollution biology that encompasses the whole range of plant growth responses to air pollutants. It examines the different structural, functional and biochemical responses of plants, and general plant community responses to the pollutional stress. It focuses attention on the plant rather than the pollutant and provides a clearer understanding of pollution disturbances at the different levels of plant life.

Mohammed Iqbal and Mohammed Yunus are the authors of Plant Response to Air Pollution, published by Wiley.
