Abstract

In 1-month-old sorghum and maize plants grown for 1 week in nutrient solutions with 10 or 100 ppm of the bird repellent 4-aminopyridine, fresh and dry weights tended to be higher than in plants grown without the repellant. Studies with 4-14C-aminopyridine indicated that the substance was strongly absorbed by soil colloids and was therefore relatively unavailable for root absorption
