Abstract
Phytotoxic air pollutants that threaten forest ecosystems will be with us for a long time, posing a problem of enormous importance and complexity. Coping with this problem will require better application of what is already known about pollution and much additional research on plant responses at the cellular, whole plant, and ecosystem level. Studies are needed under controlled environmental conditions as well as in the field.
