Summary: The distribution of 2.4,5‐T in Rubus procerus P. J. Muell. was measured 24 h and 7 days after application to the leaves at 60% of the normal concentration used in the field. There was no significant difference in the amount translocated at these times. At 24 h after treatment there was a very large concentration gradient across the crown but 6 days later the concentration gradient was much smaller. It was concluded that, at the rate used, the amount of 2,4,5‐T translocated to the roots was insufficient to prevent regeneration from the root system.
