betula Pendula: Response to Ozone in Leaf, Stem, and Root Cells.
Chapter
Abstract
Cell response induced by low ozone concentrations, namely cell wall thickness increased by pectin exudation, changes in tannin structure and formation of other phenolic compounds is traced from leaf mesophyll cells to small leaf veins, stem and coarse root bark of birch cuttings.
