Abstract Sensitivity of different agronomic crops to UV‐B radiation was studied under environmentally controlled conditions. UV‐B radiation reduced plant height, fresh weight, dry weight and ash contents. The reduction varied among the different species tested. Narrow‐leaved plants (mainly C 4 ) were less sensitive to UV‐B than broad‐leaved plants (mainly C 3 ).
