Abstract: The article presents a study on emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from ozone exposed plants. It mentions that the ozone-induced reactions of the ozone-sensitive Bel W3 plants look like the hypersensitive response found after pathogen attack. It highlights that feedback mechanisms in photooxidant formation may be caused by an increased VOC emission as a consequence of elevated ozone concentrations in the troposphere.
