Abstract

The negative consequences of surface ozone on agricultural crops will be an important threat to global food security in coming years. Several approaches have been adopted from time to time to evaluate the harmful effects of O3 on crop plants. The technique of O3 biomonitoring is used to estimate the level of O3 induced injury in plants. The concept of biomonitoring basically applies two methods, either the estimation of foliar injury symptoms or by analyzing the response of plants using specific chemical protectants which act as antiozonants. Biomonitoring programmes provide us with valuable comparative information regarding the O3 concentrations at different sites, such that the impact of ambient O3 is directly measured. The technique is specifically useful in developing countries, where extensive research facilities are not present. Effect of O3 on plant biomass is an important factor contributing towards the yield of the plants. The biomass accumulation and allocation pattern adopted by the plants in response to O3 stress not only determines the yield loss but also specifies the cultivar sensitivity/resistivity towards O3. Different crop loss assessment programmes carried out in different parts of the world have depicted the necessity for further exploring the O3 induced yield losses in coming times. In addition to programmes like NCLAN and EOTC, several individual experiments have also been conducted to evaluate yield losses in different crop plants. In the past few decades, several models like MOZRAT, MOZRAT 2, have been proposed which have predicted the yield losses of different agricultural crops in coming few decades. As per the modeling results, the regions of south and south-east Asia are specifically prone to greater yield reductions and therefore, there is an urgent need to develop extensive crop loss evaluation programmes in these areas.
