Abstract

The relationship between susceptibility of certain plant species to 4,6-dinitro-o-sec-butylphenol (DNBP) and their capacity to accumulate externally supplied P32, and to form ATP in leaf disks was studied. A correlation was found between susceptibility of the species to DNBP and their capacity for P32 accumulation and ATP synthesis. Therefore, it was postulated that susceptibility depends upon the level of ATP in the tissues.
