Photosensitized herbicidal action
Description
The herbicidal action produced by the colorless hydrocarbon fluoranthene sprayed on the leaves of growing plants did not occur when UV radiation was removed from the light to which the plants are exposed. If the UV component of the light under which the plants were grown was augmented, the herbicidal effect of fluoranthene was increased. The mechanism of this photodynamic action is discussed. (author)
