Differential sensitivity of two common groundsel biotypes (Senecio vulgaris L.) to several s-triazine herbicides

Creator:: Radosevich, Steven R.
Abstract:: Studies were initiated to determine the response of two common groundsel biotypes (Senecio vulgaris L. ) to several s-triazine herbicides. Herbicides tested were: 2-chloro-4,6-bis(ethylamino)-striazine (simazine), 2-chloro-4-(ethylamino)-6-(isopropylamino)- s-triazine (atrazine) 2-(sec-butylamino)-4-(ethylamino)-6-methoxys- triazine (GS-14254), 2, 4-bis(isopropylamino)-6-methoxy-striazine (prometone), 2-(tert-butylamino)-4-(ethylamino)-6-methylthio- s-triazine (terbutryn), and 2, 4-bis(isopropylamino)-6- methylthio-s-triazine (prometryne).
