Abstract
Abstract GLYCOLIC ACID APPLIED TO FOLIAGE WILL OPEN STOMATA PORES AND CAUSE THE PLANT TO BECOME DESICCATED. THE GLYCOLIC ACID ALSO MAY BE COMBINED WITH KNOWN DESICCANTS. IN LOWER CONCENTRATIONS, THE GLYCOLIC ACID MAY BE EMPLOYED WITH SYSTEMICS SUCH AS HERBICIDES AND GIBBERELLIC ACID TO AID THEIR ABSORPTION AND TRANSLOCATION BY THE PLANT.
