Abstract
A study was made to determine whether lindane is absorbed and translocated in corn plants. Corn seedlings were grown in lindane-treated nutrient solution and analyzed by bioassay. Daily volumes of guttated liquid from the corn leaves were also bio-assayed. The presence of toxicity in extracts of treated samples is offered as evidence of lindane translocation.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
