Abstract

A 0.25-mil mylar film was used as a part of an in-situ autoradiographic technique for studying 14C-labeled compounds in soil containing growing corn (Zea mays L., var. WF9 X Hy) roots. This technique facilitates herbicide movement studies in soils and plants while plants grow undisturbed.
