Ion Transport Across Leaf Cuticles: Concepts and Mechanismsn electric gradient, called a diffusion potential is generated; this electric gradient will retard the rate of diffusion of some ions and speed up the rate of others. Failure to recognize the influence of electric gradients can lead to errors or vagueness in interpretation of results (see below).

Effects of Air Pollutants on Epicuticular Wax Chemical Compositionbing changes in wax composition due to pollutants is briefly reviewed. New evidence is introduced in support of the hypothesis for a direct interaction between air pollutants and epicuticular wax biosynthesis.

Cuticular Characteristics in the Detection of Plant Stress Due to Air Pollution — New Problems in thcteristics in the detection of plant stress due to air pollutants has recently evolved. Some examples are given, but much remains to be done to understand the effects on the cuticle of these new modifications of the atmospheric environment of plants.

Previously unpublished data on leaf wettability of spruce species exposed in the field and in controlled environments to a range of pollutants are used to illustrate some of the problems of interpretation that may arise.
