| Abstract: | The formation of dihydroisocoumarins (I and II), the chromones (III and IV) and scopoletin (V) is induced in carrot roots by storage in the presence of low concentrations of ethylene and by inoculation with various fungi. There has been concern over possible toxic effects of dihydroisocoumarins and some preliminary toxicological data on (I), (II) and (IV) are included. |
