Damping off caused by Rhizoctonia solani (isolate AG4) constrains growing soybean in the north Iranian province of Golestan. The pathogen was grown on malt agar containing 0, 50, 100 or 200 ppm trifluralin then its vegetative growth and virulence were evaluated. The response of soybean cv. Williams seedlings grown in soil containing 0, 0.5, 1 and 2 ?g ai g-1 trifluralin was investigated. On mal...

gations that leached the material from the emitter zone reduced its effectiveness. Quantitative descriptions of The transport of a pulse of trifluralin (2,6-dinitro-N,N-dipropyl-4the fate and transport of trifluarlin in the soil, therefore, [trifluoromethyl] benzenamime) applied via a subsurfacedripper was analyzed numerically. Results of the analyses suggest that the moveare essential for the ...

Drug resistance has emerged as a major obstacle to chemotherapy for many infectious diseases. Trifluralin, an antimicrotubule herbicide, is a new experimental drug for treatment of leishmaniasis. Here, we found that it was effective against two strains of Leishmania that express the multidrug-resistant genes ldmdr1 and lmpgpA and two strains that express proteins that are immunologically cross-...

Glyphosate isopropylamine and trifluralin are herbicides widely used in Turkish agriculture. The recommended field dose (RFD) (480 g of active ingredient l for both glyphosate and trifluralin) and 2 × RFD of these herbicides were added to the soil of olive trees (Olea europaea L., Oleaceae) growing on the Çukurova University Campus (Adana) under Mediterranean climate conditions in order to dete...

Trifluralin is a preemergent herbicide that applied to soil control annual grasses and broadleaf weeds. It widely used in cotton, Gossypium hirsutum L., production China; however, the ecological safety of its continued use controversial issue. We studied interaction trifluralin earthworms, Eisenia foetide Savigny (Annelida: Lumbricidae), provide additional information for assessing risk soils. ...

Submicromolar concentrations of several dinitroaniline herbicides have been found to specifically inhibit intracellular replication of the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii. IC50 concentrations for T. gondii survival were approximately 100 nM for ethalfluralin and oryzalin and approximately 300 nM for trifluralin. Primary human fibroblasts employed as host cells for parasite culture were una...

The extensive use of herbicides in agriculture becomes an important factor in environmental pollution, especially in case of slowly degradable compounds. Some agents act on plants during a long period of time, even if a very low concentration of the herbicide remains in the soil. Here, we investigated the toxicological effect of a low concentration of dinitroaniline herbicide, trifluralin, on g...
