Abstract
Three closely related growth regulators (G) that are present in some myrtaceous plants were examined for possible anti-transpirant effects. The bioassay material involved cuttings of mung bean and Eucalyptus rupicola. Stomatal resistance was determined by a diffusion porometer. Water loss was equated with water uptake by the cutting over a 24-hour period.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
