Description

Results of a field study conducted in the summer of 2000 showed that when the antioxidant ethylene diurea (EDU) was applied to crops, there were increases in several parameters. The next step was to verify whether the effects of EDU resulted from EDU-mediated protection against ozone or from plant growth promoting effects of EDU that are independent of ozone. A series of controlled environment trials were designed to test this hypothesis.
