Abstract
DD, approximately 50% each of 1,2-dichloropropane and 1,3-dichloropropene, was compared with similar mixtures, varying in proportions. Growth response as measured by fruit weight indicated that 1,3-dichloropropene is an essential component of chlorinated propanes and propenes for soil fumigation but not necessarily in specific proportions. An absolute minimum content of 30% 1,3-dichloropropene is indicated but the complete mixture can vary within a boiling range of 70[degree] to 140[degree] C.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
