Effects of ambient ozone (O3) concentrations on the growth performance of rice (oryza sativa var. Mr 219) treated with different nutrient regimes in the muda area, Malaysia

Ozone (O3) is a secondary gaseous pollutant produced through photochemical reaction known to have substantial impacts on agricultural production in North America and Western Europe. In Malaysia, emissions of O3 precursors such as non-methane hydrocarbons and nitrogen dioxide are rapidly increased du...
