Abstract: | The paper proposes a new method for evaluating the tolerance of trees to SO2 pollution stress, and grouping plants as indicators and controllers by tolerance index values. The index is calculated by a new arithmetic formula. The developed model is useful in identifying tolerant and susceptible plants to SO2. |
