Abstract
Using Hg arc lamps and H filled Geissler tubes as sources, the u.-v. limits of transmission were determined for various seed coats and other plant membranes. The shortest wavelength transmitted was at about 3020 A with very little pene tration beyond [lambda] 3630 A.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
