REVIOUS work by the authors and others (4, 6)3 has shown P that normal' carbohydrate metabolism in the growing plant is contingent on the presence of adequate supplies of available boron in the growth substrate. The experiment described in this paper was planned to study the effect of various levels of boron fertilization on the distribution of carbohydrates in the tops and bulbs of the radish plant.
