The percentage foliar injury on Nicotiana tabacum L. Bel W/sub 3/ infected by tobacco streak virus (TSV) and exposed to ozone (O/sub 3/) was greater than the additive percentage foliar injury to either TSV-infected or O/sub 3/-exposed plants. The fresh and dry weights of leaves, stems and roots of Bel W/sub 3/ exposed to O/sub 3/, infected with TSV, or both were significantly lower than the weights of the same parts from control plants. The growth-inhibiting effects of O/sub 3/ and TSV were only additive. 12 references, 2 tables.
