Abstract

Studies on the inhibition of spores by spore germination technique, using Memnoniella echinata as a test organism, have revealed that copper versatate is more efficacious as a rot proofing agent than versatic acid. Its efficiency in inhibiting spore germination is one tenth that of copper naphthenate.
