Extract

Most workers with herbicides agree that the effects brought about by many of these substances must be the results of altered enzymatic action within the plant. The actual mechanism is still a matter of conjecture in spite of some excellent research and well founded theorizing. A brief examination of enzymes and enzyme action in the light of results obtained with 2,4-D particularly, may suggest how this herbicide fits into the enzyme picture.
