The reaction of F, often a component of industrial
wastes and phosphatic fertilizers, with soil was studied
with regard to sorption reactions and resultant changes in
solution composition. Sodium fluoride solutions (0.0 to
2.5 mmol/L F) were equilibrated with ten soils for 24h.
The soil extract solutions were analyzed for...
The behavior of metribuzin [4-amino-6-(1,1-
dimethylethyl)-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one] and
ethyl-metribuzin (4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-
(ethylthio)-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one] in soil was studied to
determine if differences in herbicide behavior in soil could
explain (a) the inconsistent herbicidal activity of these
chemicals and (b) the greater activity of metribuzin, as
compared to ethyl-metribuzin.
Metribuzin had higher activity than ethyl-metribuzin...
