Extract

The absorption and translocation of radioactive 2,4–D in bean plants has been studied by many workers (2, 4, 5, 7). The translocation of radioactive carbon from applied 2,4–D has been demonstrated to be more rapid in susceptible bean plants than in resistant plants such as corn and wheat seedlings (2, 3, 4). The difference in reaction of 2,4–D with plant constituents was further established between these two types of plants (3, 6). A compound designated as “unknown 1” was the major metabolic product formed in 2,4–D treated bean plants while “unknown 3” was found mainly in 2,4–D treated corn and wheat seedlings.
