This study deals with the impact of auto-emission on stomatal frequency, epidermal cells and stomatal index of two common dicotyledonous roadside plants i.e- Eucalyptus spp. and Mangifera indica L. Stomatal and epidermal cells frequency and stomatal index show drastic reduction at different distances of high polluted site(HPS), medium polluted site(MPS) and low polluted site(LPS) from National highway- 58. The data collected from these plants show that Eucalyptus spp. were slightly tolerant to auto-emission pollution in comparison to Mangifera indica L.
