Photochemical oxidant pollution and related occurrences of plant injury have occurred in Japan every year since 1969-1970. Crop injury by photochemical oxidants (mainly ozone) is directly connected with agricultural economic loss. Especially, the marketable values of damaged leafy vegetables are greatly reduced, causing drastic economic losses. Five methods of agriculture technology for avoiding damage resulting from ozone are considered: (1) inherited resistance properties of crops; (2) fertilizer management; (3) treatment with specific chemicals; (4) biotechnological activation of defense genes; and (5) in-facilities cultivation. However, until now these methods only offer a temporary countermeasure, providing limited protection and are useful only against occurrence of mild injuries.
