The Persistence of 2,4-D in Cotton when Applied with Desiccants
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Cotton plants were treated with 2,4-D-2-C-14 (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) applied with pentachlorophenol and arsenic acid. Seed kernels and regrowth leaves were extracted and various components of the extracts were applied to leaf surfaces and injected into the stems of cotton seedlings. Results indicated that 2,4-D itself and/or a metabolite of 2,4-D, were responsible for the persistence of the 2,4-D stimulus in cotton.
