Abstract | Since many years, bioindicator plants have been used for effect monitoring of air pollution. In this paper it is demonstrated that the determination of the nitrogen metabolism activity of plants using stable isotope tracer techniques has proven a suitable method for detecting sublethal effects of multiple, low-dose and chronic pollution load. This method permits to diagnose air pollution on a metabolic level of an early stage before visible damages on plants occur. |
