Suggests that linamarin is used by the plant to repel insect pests, i.e. the function of the glucosides is to liberate HCN and thereby repel insect pests when they attack the plant.

Notes that in active, healthy tissue of the growing plant, enzyme and substrate do not come into contact, but contact occurs when the tissues are mechanically damaged, or when loss of physiological integrity occurs as a result of post-harvest deterioration of the tubers, or of wilting of the leaves. Hydrolysis then takes place, liberating the HCN. Claims the glucoside concentration in roots is not affected by its age but the enzyme concentration becomes lower as roots approach maturity.]
