Abstract
⺠Exposure of rice plants to elevated ozone during growth led to altered grain quality. ⺠Protein and lipid concentration increased whereas starch concentration and thousand kernel weight decreased. ⺠Rice grain, protein and iron yield tended to decrease in plants exposed to high ozone. ⺠These effects were responsive to different ozone levels and showed genotypic differences. ⺠The overall effect of ozone o human nutrition is expected to be negative.
