Can I read Influence of 2,4-D, Dicamba, and Naptalam on Hormonal Control of Dipeptidase on EtoBox?

Influence of 2,4-D, Dicamba, and Naptalam on Hormonal Control of Dipeptidase by Tsay, R.; Ashton, F. M. is a Agricultural and Biological Sciences article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Influence of 2,4-D, Dicamba, and Naptalam on Hormonal Control of Dipeptidase about?

The plant hormones gibberellic acid (GA) and benzyladenine (BA) stimulated the development of dipeptidase activity in distal-half cotyledons of squash (__Cucurbita maxima__Duch. ‘Chicago Warted Hubbard’). The herbicides 2,4-D [(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetic acid], dicamba (3,6-dichloro-__o__-anisic acid), and naptalam (__N__-1-napthylphalamic acid) inhibited the development of dipeptidase activity in this tissue. Herbicide concentrations which inhibited the development of this enzyme activity about 30% were used for the herbicidehormone interaction study. The addition of GA or BA counteracted the inhibition induced by 2,4-D and naptalam. Neither hormone grossly altered the inhibition induced by dicamba; however, BA did significantly reduce the inhibition caused by dicamba.

Who reads Influence of 2,4-D, Dicamba, and Naptalam on Hormonal Control of Dipeptidase?

It is typically read by researchers, students, and practitioners in Agricultural and Biological Sciences.
