Pinto beans and soybeans were exposed to ozone to determine the interactions of growth temperature, exposure temperature, potassium nutrition, and doses of ozone on their foliar sensitivity. Pinto beans developed more foliar injury than soybeans. Pinto beans were most sensitive when grown and exposed at 28 C. Growth and exposure temperature interacted in the development of foliar injury on pinto beans, but only growth temperature influenced the amount of foliar injury on soybeans. Both species developed more foliar injury when grown with low potassium nutrition. There was no relationship between foliar injury and reducing sugars or the sucrose content of the leaves.
