The left scale {G) refers to the growth of wheat roots in per cent of control without added regulator (continuous lines), the right one [G') to the growth of the 2: -i-D-inhibitedflax roots in per cent of control with 10"' M 2:4-Z) only (broken lines). The growth values are plotted against a logarithmic concentration scale. X is the number of independent experiments represented by the points. upon control sections was negligible. When tested by the present method (p. 94),4-ClPOiB gives a conspicuous inhibition of coleoptile cyhnder growth at 10-^ M and higher concentrations. Up to 5 X 10-^ M, 4-ClPO/B is a stronger inhibitor than FOiB, but at higher concentrations the curves tend to cross each other. This phenomenon will be further studied as it could possibly indicate a very faint residual intrinsic auxin activity of 4-ClPO?B molecules. As in the case of wobutyric acids, there are good reasons to assume that in transc' acids the side chain is of a type normally excluding any 103.
