Abstract/Contents: | The organic solvents petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl ether and acetone were tested for their influence on the germination and seedling growth of wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. 'Mericopa') and corn ( Zea mays L. Merit). The purpose of the testing was to determine if the solvents could be used as carriers for water insoluble herbicides or growth regulators when screening of these compounds becomes necessary as part of their commercial development. Petroleum ether, ethyl ether, and acetone did not appreciably affect growth and thus can be used as carrier solvents for screening purposes. |
