ABSTRACT = {The particle matter, particularly the suspended particle matter (PM ≤
2.5) in the air is not only a risk factor for human health, but also affects the
survival and physiological features of plants. Plants show advantages in the
adsorption of particle matter, while the factors, such as the leaf shape, leaf
distribution density and leaf surface microstructure, such as grooves, folds,
stomata, flocculent projections, micro-roughness, long fuzz, short pubescence,
wax and secretory products, appeared to play an important role determing their
absorption capacity. In this paper, the research progress on the capture or
adsorption of atmospheric particles was summarized, and the forest vegetation
and woody plants were discuessed. In addition, special attentions were paid to
the effect of haze-fog weather on greenhouse plant, the different responses of
plant leaves to dust particles and suspended particles, as well as the effect of
suspended particles on morphological change of plants. In the future, research
should focus on the mechanism of the influence of particulate matter on plants.
More advanced effective and convenient research methods like spectral
detection method also need to be developed. This paper may provide reference
for future studies on plants’ response to haze and particle matter.},
