Abstract

To control air pollution in industrialized area in the city of Udaipur studies were carried out to determine the toxic effects on physiological responses of an economically important tree species Mango (Mangifera indica L.), to roadside automobile pollution during September 2007 to October 2009. The data obtained indicate significant changes in all parameters studied of the leaf samples collected from roadside trees exposed to toxic automobile exhausts in comparison to control. The data were further analyzed by one-way ANOVA, which gave significant values. Trees play an important role, so naturally growing or planted trees function as bioindicators of air pollution. This helps in searching of an efficient sink for air pollutants.
