Extract

An understanding of the physiological action of various herbicides is based in part upon a knowledge of the exact path of movement of the substance in the plant, the rapidity of transfer from one tissue to another, and the relative proportion of the total conductive tissue that is effective in transfer under any given set of conditions. Although the intercellular distribution of radioactive isotopes in both plant and animal tissues has been studied by the use of histoautoradiography, only one brief paper describes the use of this method with plant growth regulators.
