The Hill

Five 2,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidinecarboxanilides were effective inhibitors of the Hill reaction. However, only thecisisomers were active; thetransisomers were totally inactive. Experiments were conducted using14C-5328 (cis-2,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidinecarboxanilide). A correlation existed between resistance of various plants to 5328 and their ability to metabolize it to water soluble metabolites. Velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrastiMedic.) and proso millet (Panicum miliaceumL.) seedlings were very susceptible to 5328 and were unable to metabolize it. Tall morningglory [Ipomoea purpurea(L.) Roth] seedlings were highly tolerant to 5328 and converted it completely to its metabolites. Corn (Zea maysL. ‘DeKalb variety XL-45′) seedlings which were slightly susceptible to 5328 injury were able to metabolize up to 90% of the parent compound. Corn foliage uptake of14C-5328 applied to the soil surface occurred through the adventitious roots.

Peach Trees

The effects of five residual herbicides and two mixtures of herbicides on tree and weed growth were studied in two trials over two consecutive seasons in a young peach orchard at Bathurst, New South Wales. In the first trial, dichlobenil at 4.5 and 9.0 kg ha-1 increased tree growth and suppressed weeds, but the residual effects of the low rate were short; simazine (2.2 kg ha-1), trifluralin (2.2 kg ha-1) and simazine (1 1 kg ha-1) plus trifluralin (1.1 kg ha-1) also reduced weed incidence but did not improve tree growth. In the second trial, terbacil (2.2 kg ha-1) and mixtures of diuron (1.1 kg ha-1) and terbacil at 1.1 or 2.2 kg ha-1 effectively controlled weeds, giving faster tree growth. Terbacil (1.1 kg ha-1) and diuron (1.1 kg ha-1) suppressed broadleaf but not grass weeds. Terbacil (1.1 kg ha-1) improved tree growth only in the second season; diuron (1.1 kg ha-1) did not affect tree growth. None of the peach trees displayed toxic symptoms. The main weeds present in the trial site were: Amaranthus powellii, Chenopodium album, Polygonum aviculare, Lepidium hyssopifolum, Lactuca serriola, Rumex acetosella, Sonchus oleraceus, Plantago lanceolata, Cynodon dactylon, Bromus sp, and Eragrostis sp.

W doświadczeniu przeprowadzonym na polach produkcyjnych należących do firmy Leasaffre Polska z siedzibą w Wołczynie (51˚4’N, 17˚57’E) oceniano wpływ nawadniania ściekami uzyskanymi z przemysłu spożywczego (po produkcji drożdży) na występowanie oraz skład gatunkowy chwastów w łanie mozgi trzcinowatej, pszenicy jarej, pszenicy ozimej oraz kukurydzy. Niezależnie od rośliny uprawnej oraz zastosowanej dawki polewowej ścieku główny składnik flory segetalnej nawadnianych plantacji stanowiły gatunki higrofilne, tj. Phragmites australis, Equisetum arvense, higro-, i nitrofilne, tj. Polygonum hydropiper, Symphytum officinale, Echinochloa crus-galli, Poa trivialis, Apera spica-venti, Matricaria maritima ssp. Indora, oraz nitrofilne, tj. Galium aparine, Solanum nigrum, Urtica dioica i Galinsoga parviflora. Natomiast na plantacjach, na których nie stosowano nawadniania ściekiem, najczęściej występowały gatunki siedlisk suchych lub okresowo wysychających, tj. Setaria viridis, Conyza canadensis, Bromus hordeaceus czy Plantago lanceolata. Ponadto dość liczną grupę stanowiły gatunki, które występowały zarówno na polach nawadnianych, jak i nienawadnianych, a które można określić mianem neutralnych, tj. Elymus repens, Capsella bursa-pastoris, Fallopia convolvulus, Geranium pusillum, Polygonum aviculare i Cirsium arvense.

Medicinal Plant Extracts

Introduction: Many plant-derived products despite wide usage are not scientifically evaluated for their safety and efﬁcacy. Therefore, in the present study, we aimed to evaluate the cytotoxic and genotoxic activities of Polygonum aviculare L., Equisetum arvense L., Plantago lanceolata L. and Artemisia absinthium L. ethanolic extracts in human white blood cells. Methods: Cell viability was assayed by trypan blue exclusion method, while the genotoxicity was tested by cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) assay upon cells stimulation with noncytotoxic concentrations of the plant extracts. Results: None of the plant extracts showed high cytotoxic activity. At the same time, only extract of P. lanceolata did not present any mutagenic activity, while E. arvense, P. aviculare and A. absinthium were clearly genotoxic. Conclusion: Caution is advice in the case of long-term use of E. arvense, P. aviculare and A. absinthium herbal medicines by population.

Herbicide Treatment

The potential interactive effects between the herbicides chlorsulfuron {2-chloro-N-[[(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]carbonyl] benzenesulfonamide}, PP009 {butyl 2-[4-[5-(trifluoromethyl-2-pyridinyl) oxy] phenoxy] propanoate}, and BAS 9052 OH {2-[1-(ethoxyimino)-butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)-propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-one} and the air pollutant ozone (O3) on the growth of sorghum [Sorghum bicolor(L.) Moench. ‘Funk G623rg’] and velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrastiMedic. # ABUTH) were examined. All three herbicides were applied postemergence either before or after a single 6-h fumigation of sorghum and velvetleaf seedlings with O3at 0, 0.1, and 0.2 ppmv. Chlorsulfuron was applied at 0, 0.06, or 0.12 kg ai/ha, while PP009 and BAS 9052 OH were applied at 0, 0.6, and 1.2 kg ai/ha. Two weeks after treatment, dry weight responses of velvetleaf seedlings revealed that PP009 interacted synergistically while chlorsulfuron and BAS 9052 OH interacted antagonistically with O3. The sequence of O3fumigation and herbicide treatment appeared to be an important factor determining the type of interactive effects of these herbicides with O3. The interactive effects of all three herbicides with O3on sorghum seedlings were additive regardless of the sequence of O3fumigation and herbicide treatment.
