Title

Hydrogen Cyanide Fumigation

E. E. Clayton Botanical Gazette 1919. doi:10.1086/332501

Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect Hydrocyanic acid gas concentrations produced effects ranging from stimulation to depression.
Observation Maximum benefit occurred at concentrations lethal to insects just below the threshold of plant injury.
Intervention effect Reduced temperature and low light on the preceding day increased fumigation resistance.
Association Injury increased with stomatal aperture size.
Mechanism Changing soil water supply affected resistance through growth rate.
Association Rapid growth was associated with susceptibility to injury while slow growth was associated with greater resistance.
Association High reducing sugar content appeared correlated with maximum resistance.
