Abstract
Phenylmercuric acetate (0.001 M) reduced transpiration of ponderosa pine and Douglas fir in a greenhouse without increasing foliage temperatures. The reductions were 48% and 24%, respectively, and the effect lasted at least seven days. Some foliage on one treated tree of each species showed browning four weeks after treatment.
