Sulfur Dioxide
The exposure of succulent, broad-leaved plants to sulfur dioxide (SO2) and its by- product sulfuric acid usually results in dry, papery blotches that are generally white, tan, or straw-colored and marginal or interveinal (Figure 2). On some species, chro[r]

particulate limit values are of great practical importance and are also laid down in this annex in most cases to complement or replace specific limit values for cadmium or lead or mercury.
