We found that biofilms drive the removal of bentazone, metazachlor and metribuzin from water through rapid mineralization these herbicides, rather than by their sorption accumulation.

Usage of glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)-glycine] and glufosinate [2-amino-4-(hydroxy-methylphosphinyl)butanoic acid] may reduce the environmental impact of agriculture because they are more strongly sorbed to soil and may be less toxic than many of the residual herbicides they replace. Preferential flow complicates the picture, because due to this process, even strongly sorbed chemicals can mo...

Context Yield losses in lentil (Lens culinaris ssp. Medik.) caused by weeds are estimated at 20–80%. In the absence of effective broad-spectrum herbicides, menace weed has emerged as a serious yield constraint lentil. Aims Identification tolerance to two post-emergence imazethapyr and metribuzin.

چکیده به منظور بررسی کارایی چهار علف کش اتال فلورالین، تریفلورالین، پندیمتالین و متری بوزین در مزارع سیب زمینی و روی علف های هرز سلمه و تاج خروس آزمایشی گلخانه ای در سال 1387 در دانشگاه محقق اردبیلی انجام شد. آزمایش ها به صورت پاسخ به دز در قالب طرح کاملاً تصادفی با 4 تکرار و با استفاده از رقم آگریا انجام شد. کلیه علف کش ها در 6 دز به صورت دزهای کاهش یافته تا دزهای افزایشی نسبت به دز توصیه شده ا...

This study was conducted under laboratory conditions to investigate the effects of herbicides (nicosulfuron, metribuzin and glyphosate) on the number of actinomycetes in soil and growth of several isolates of actinomycetes in vitro. The lowest tested concentrations equalled the recommended rates (1X), while the other three were five-fold (5X), ten-fold (10X) and fifty-fold (50X). Samples were c...

Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted during 2005 and 2006 at Stoneville, MS, to determine control of ragweed parthenium with several preemergence (PRE) and postemergence (POST) herbicides registered for use in corn, cotton, peanut, rice, and soybean. Norflurazon, pendimethalin, clomazone, diuron, fluometuron, pyrithiobac, dimethenamid, flumetsulam, imazaquin, s-metolachlor, metribuzi...

abstractgrowth of b. japonicum isolates at different concentrations of herbicide used on soybean was studied as factorial experiment arranged in a completely randomized design with three replications. isolates b1, b6, b43 and 0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 folded of the recommended doses of trifluralin, metribuzin and imazethapyr herbicides were considered as factors. isolates populatio...
