| Abstract: | Control of basal rot of narcissus following hot-water treatment against eelworm was equally good when 0.5% formalin was included in the bath or was used as a cold or warm steep immediately afterwards. When the formalin steep was delayed control was less good. All methods of applying formalin in connexion with hot-water treatments used in these experiments were equally harmless to growth and flowering of the bulbs. |
