Decomposition mechanism of organomercuric fungicides in plants were studied from biochemical point of view.
Phenyl- and alkylmercuric compounds were shown to be decomposed rapidly but with lag time, in the presence of tissue cultured wheat root.
Pretreated root with an organomercuric compound reacts with the same reagent without lag time but not with other kinds of organomercuric compounds.
