Since the early work of Laibach (7) abscission has been considered to be controlled by auxin, but comparative effects have been reported for only a few auxins (4, 5, 13) and it is not clear to what extent abscission activity is really related to auxin activity. Moreover, when comparative studies have been made only the inhibitory effects of auxins have been compared (4). The aim of the present study is to conmpare quantitatively the abscission effects of a selection of chemicals having various degrees of auxin activity. Both inhibitory and promotive aspects have been considered in an effort to clarify the extent to which abscission effects are related to auxin effects on growth.
