Structure-concentration–foliar uptake enhancement relationships between commercial polyoxyethylene primary aliphatic alcohol (A), nonylphenol (NP), primary aliphatic amine (AM) surfactants and the herbicide glyphosatemono(isopropylammonium) were studied in experiments with wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and field bean (Vicia faba L.) plants growing under controlled-environment conditions. Candidate surfactants had mean molar ethylene oxide (EO) contents ranging from 5 to 20 and were added at concentrations varying from 0·2 to 10 g litre?-1 to [14C]glyphosate formulations in acetone–water. Rates and total amounts of herbicide uptake from c. 0·2–μl droplet applications of formulations to leaves were influenced by surfactant EO content, surfactant hydrophobe composition, surfactant concentration, glyphosate concentration and plant species, in a complex manner. Surfactant effects were most pronounced at 0·5 g acid equivalent (a.e.) glyphosate litre?-1 where, for both target species, surfactants of high EO content (15–20) were most effective at enhancing herbicide uptake: surfactants of lower EO content (5–10) frequently reduced, or failed to improve, glyphosate absorption. Whereas, at optimal EO content, AM surfactants caused greatest uptake enhancement on wheat, A surfactants gave the best overall performance on field bean; NP surfactants were generally the least efficient class of adjuvants on both species. Threshold concentrations of surfactants needed to increase glyphosate uptake were much higher in field bean than wheat (c. 2 g litre?-1 and < 1 g litre?-1, respectively); less herbicide was taken up by both species at high AM surfactant concentrations. At 5 and 10 g a.e. glyphosate litre?-1, there were substantial increases in herbicide absorption and surfactant addition could cause effects on uptake that were different from those observed at lower herbicide doses. In particular, the influence of EO content on glyphosate uptake was now much less marked in both species, especially with AM surfactants. The fundamental importance of glyphosate concentration for its uptake was further emphasised by experiments using formulations with constant a.i./surfactant weight ratios. Any increased foliar penetration resulting from inclusion of surfactants in 0·5 g litre?-1 [14C]glyphosate formulations gave concomitant increases in the amounts of radiolabel that were translocated away from the site of application. At these low herbicide doses, translocation of absorbed [14C]glyphosate in wheat was c. twice that in field bean; surfactant addition to the formulation did not increase the proportion transported in wheat but substantially enhanced it in field bean.  相似文献

Composition-concentration relationships between a series of C13/C14 polyoxyethylene primary alcohol (AE) surfactants and the foliar uptake enhancement of five model neutral organic compounds were examined in factorially designed experiments on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and field bean (Vicia faba L.) plants grown under controlled environment conditions. Model compounds were applied to leaves as c.0.2-μl droplets of 0.5 g litre?1 solutions in aqueous acetone in the absence or presence of surfactants at 0.2, 1 and 5g litre?1. Uptake of the highly water-soluble compound, methylglucose (log octanol-water partition coefficient (P) = - 3.0) was best enhanced by surfactants with high E (ethylene oxide) contents (AE15, AE20), whereas those of the lipophilic compounds, WL110547 (log P = 3.5) and permethrin (log P = 6.5), were increased more by surfactants of lower E contents, especially AE6. However, there was little difference between AE6, AE11, AE15 and AE20 in their ability to promote uptake of the two model compounds of intermediate polarity, phenylurea (log P = 0.8) and cyanazine (log P = 2.1). Absolute amounts of compound uptake were also influenced strongly by both surfactant concentration and plant species. Greatest amounts of uptake enhancement were often observed at high surfactant concentration (5 g litre?1) and on the waxy wheat leaves compared with the less waxy field bean leaves. The latter needed higher surfactant thresholds to produce significant improvements in uptake. Data from our experiments were used to construct a simple response surface model relating uptake enhancement to the E content of the surfactant added and to the physicochemical properties of the compound to be taken up. Qualitative predictions from this model might be useful in rationalising the design of agrochemical formulations.  相似文献

The effects of seven adjuvants (at 0, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 g litre?1) on the efficacies of four fungicides al 0.5 g litre?1 were studied in the laboratory for the control of leaf-spot in celery (caused by Septoria apiicola) and powdery mildew on winter wheat (caused by Erysiphe graminis). The most effective fungicides for controlling leaf-spot were: tebuconazole + triadimenol = flutriafol > mancozeb + oxadixyl > prochloraz. However, addition of adjuvant to the fungicides gave a modified pattern of effectiveness. The efficacy of flutriafol was strongly enhanced by addition of all adjuvants, but those of prochloraz and mancozeb+oxadixyl only partially so. The tested adjuvants were mineral oil + surfactant, a polymer/alkoxylated alkyl ether blend, an ethoxylated alkylphenol, an ethoxylated hexitan ester blend, an ethoxylated nonylphenol and an alkylpolysaccharide- based adjuvant mixture. However, the addition of adjuvants to tebuconazole + triadimenol had a negative effect. Of all the adjuvants tested, the nonylphenol ethoxylate and a mixture of mineral oil /surfactant and alkylpolysaccharides gave the highest efficacy with the fungicides, while the mineral oil/surfactant and the alkylpolysaccharides alone were less effective. There was a positive relationship between high concentrations of adjuvants and their effectiveness, but there were some exceptions. The most effective fungicides for control of powdery mildew in wheat were prochloraz, mancozeb + oxadixyl and tebuconazole + triadimenol. There was a linear relationship between the high efficacy of the fungicide and the concentration of adjuvants to control powdery mildew in wheat. The highest concentration of adjuvant (2-0 g litre?1) gave the highest efficacy for the fungicides.  相似文献

Radiolabelled deoxyglucose (DOG) and glyphosate were used to investigate the effects of certain non-ionic surfactants on the kinetics of foliar uptake in three species. ‘Silwet L-77’ (5 g litre?1), an organosilicone surfactant, enabled spray solutions to infiltrate stomata, providing uptake of DOG into Vicia bean (50%), oat (35%) and wheat (20%) within 10 min of application. ‘Silwet Y-12301’, another organosilicone, also induced stomatal infiltration but to a lesser extent; unlike L-77, this was attenuated by partial stomatal closure. A third organosilicone, ‘Silwet L-7607’, and two conventional surfactants, ‘Triton X-45’ (OP5) and ‘Agral 90’ (NP9), did not induce stomatal infiltration. The effective minimum concentration of L-77 required to enable infiltration of stomata was 2 g litre?1. The uptake of glyphosate into bean did not differ from that of DOG but the ‘Roundup’ formulation of glyphosate partially antagonised the infiltration provided by L-77. Addition of surfactants did not increase the rate of cuticular penetration of DOG into bean but total uptake was increased, except by NP9, either via infiltration (L-77 and Y-12301) or by extending the period during which penetration occurred (L-7607 and OP5). The surfactants had a variable effect on rates of penetration of DOG into wheat and oat. In general, foliar uptake followed an exponential timecourse which was largely complete within 6 h and only rarely approached 100% of the applied chemical. The stomatal infiltration provided by L-77 caused an increase in translocation of DOG in bean.  相似文献

Uptake of aminotriazole (3-amino-1,2,4-triazole) by bean leaves (Phaseolus vulgaris var. Canadian Wonder) was not greatly influenced by the addition to the spray solution of dimethylformamide (DMF), ethylene glycol and polypropylene glycol 400 (PPG 400) over the concentration range 1.0–50.0 ml litre?1. However, the addition of polyoxyethylene 20 sorbitan monolaurate (polysorbate 20) (0.2–1.0 g litre?1) to spray solutions of the above additives and glycerol (5.0 ml litre?1; except for DMF, 50.0 ml litre?1) substantially increased uptake to 80–100% in all cases at 50 ± 10% relative humidity (r.h.). Similar penetration figures were recorded when a range of polysorbate surfactants (polysorbate 20, 40, 60, 80 and 85; 0.2 g litre?1) were applied to spray solutions containing either dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) or glycerol (5.0 ml litre?1). Humidity was found to have a critical effect upon the humectant-surfactant combinations tested, i.e. DMSO + polysorbate 20, ethylene glycol+ polysorbate 20 and PPG + 400-polysorbate 20 (5.0 ml litre?1+0.2 g litre?1). With DMSO + polysorbate 20 the following uptake figures were recorded: < 30% r.h., 3.1 %; 45 ± 10% r.h., 86.8%; 55–65% r.h., 48.2 % and 100% r.h., 0.3%. Similar trends were recorded with all three humectant-surfactant combinations. Further studies revealed that the adverse effect of humidity on DMSO-polysorbate mixtures could be at least overcome partially by regulating the DMSO concentration.  相似文献

In order to obtain residue data from the application of the algicide endothal in Italian rice paddy fields, two experiments were carried out using a 50 g kg?1 granular formulation in a small pond and the same granular and two liquid formulations in actual paddy fields of the Italian rice growing area. Endothal decay in the pond water was very rapid, reaching residue levels of 0·01-1·02 mg litre?1 in two days and 0·004-0·01 mg litre?1 at the third day. The muddy soil of the pond was free from measurable endothal residues( <0·02 mg kg?1). In the paddy-field waters, the endothal decay was slower, with an average half-life time of 3·3 days, independently of the type of formulation. The actual residues in water after 6 days ranged from 0·3 to 1·3 mg litre?1 according to the initial amount of product applied, and, consequently, to the initial concentration in water. Rice samples collected at the normal harvest time from the two paddy fields, treated with three different formulations, showed no endothal residue at the minimum detectable level of 0·01 mg kg?1.  相似文献

The effects of several nonionic surfactants on [14C]glyphosate mono(isopropylammonium) diffusion across isolated tomato fruit cuticles (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) were compared under controlled atmospheric conditions (25°C; 65% R.H.) using a model system consisting of 1-μl droplets applied to isolated cuticles on agar blocks. Rates of diffusion for glyphosate (10 g acid equivalent litre?1 in the applied solution) and overall amounts recovered in underlying agar blocks were influenced by the ethylene oxide (EO) chain length for a homologous nonylphenol surfactant series (10 g litre?1). Glyphosate uptake increased with EO content, reaching an optimum at a mean of 17 EO, then decreasing below control values for surfactants with 40 EO. There was a strong influence of the hydrophobe on glyphosate penetration for different surfactants with similar mean EO content (10 EO). The primary aliphatic amine enhanced penetration the most, followed by the nonylphenol while the aliphatic alcohol showed no improvement on glyphosate transfer across cuticles. Water soprtion was greatly enhanced by a primary aliphatic amine (10 EO) and by a nonylphenol (17 EO). The aliphatic alcohol (10 EO) and a shorter-chained nonylphenol (4 EO) did not significantly enhance water sorption. Comparison of water sorption with glyphosate diffusion across cuticles suggests a strong relationship between the two. Change in solution pH over a limited range had no significant effect. Promotion of cuticular hydration by surfactants may thus play an important role in the enhancement of foliar uptake of water-soluble herbicides such as glyphosate.  相似文献

Surfactant and salt affect glyphosate retention and absorption   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The influence of nonylphenoxy surfactants and glyphosate salt formulation on spray retention, phytotoxicity and [14C]glyphosate uptake was investigated in wheat (Triticum aestivum L). and Kochia scoparia L. The amount of spray retained, and uptake of [14C]glyphosate increased with increasing hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) value of surfactants. The volume of spray delivered to the plant treatment area and retained by wheat and K. scoparia plants increased with increasing surfactant HLB values, but this only partly accounted for the higher spray retention. Spray retention by leaves of plants was not affected by calcium chloride, either alone or with ammonium sulphate in the glyphosate spray solution. [14C]Glyphosate absorption by wheat and K. scoparia was reduced by calcium chloride alone, but not in mixtures with ammonium sulphate, regardless of surfactant. Phytotoxicity and uptake of glyphosate salt formulations for wheat was: isopropylamine > ammonium > sodium > calcium; these results indicate that the surfactant selected is important to maintain glyphosate efficacy and that sodium and calcium cations antagonize glyphosate by forming salts that are absorbed less than commercial isopropylamine formulations.  相似文献

The effect of different adjuvants on the foliar uptake of difenzoquat methyl sulfate and sodium 2,4-D was studied in wild oat and field bean plants growing under controlled environmental conditions. The 14C-herbicides were applied to leaves as c. 0–2-μl droplets, usually containing 0.5 g 1?1 active ingredient, plus adjuvants in the range 0.05–5 g 1?1. The addition of non-ionic polyoxyethylene surfactants to solutions of both herbicides could induce considerable foliar uptake. Aliphatic C13C13 alcohol surfactants generally improved uptake more than nonylphenol surfactants when used at equivalent concentrations and ethylene oxide (EO) contents. The surfactant threshold for enhancement of difenzoquat uptake in wild oat was very low (0.05 g 1?1), whilst that in field bean was much higher (>0.5 g 1?1). For 2,4-D, surfactants at >0–5 g 1?1 were needed to produce substantial increases in its uptake into both species. Although surfactants of low EO content (5–6) were less efficient at promoting difenzoquat uptake than those of higher EO content (10–20), particularly in wild oat, there was little dependence on surfactant EO content for enhancement of 2,4-D uptake. Adjuvants with humectant properties also promoted penetration of difenzoquat, but less so than alcohol or nonylphenol surfactants. For formulations of both 14C-herbicides translocation was directly related to the quantity of radiolabel that had penetrated the leaf tissue. Effets de la formulation avec différents adjuvants sur l'absorption foliaire du difenzoquat et du 2,4-D: modeles experimentaux sur la folle avoine et le haricot L'influence de differents adjuvants sur l'absorption foliaire du difenzoquat methyl sulfate et du 2,4 D sodium a eétéétudiée chez la folle avoine et le haricot, cultivés sous des conditions environnementales contrôlées. Les herbicides marquees au 14C ont ete appliquées aux feuilles sous forme de gouttelettes de 0,2 μl contenant 0,5 g 1?1 de matière active, avec en plus des adjuvants de 0,05 à 5 g ?1. L'adjonction de surfactants polyoxyethylénes non ioniques aux solutions des deux herbicides pourrait induire un absorption foliaire importante. Les surfactants d'alcools aliphatiques C13/C15 ont généralement augmenté la pénétration mieux que les surfactants de type nonylphénol utilises à une concentration équivalente et que les oxydes d'éthylènes (EO). Le seuil de surfactant pour l'amélioration de l'absorption de difenzoquat sur folle avoine était très bas (0,05 g 1?1) tandis que sur haricot, il était beaucoup plus éievé (> 0,5 g 1?1). Pour le 2,4 D, des surfactants à une dose de >0,5 g 1?1 sont nécessaires pour produire une amelioration de son absorption chez les deux espéces. Bien que les surfactants à faible teneur en EO (5–6) fussent moins efficace pour favoriser l'absorption du difenzoquat que ceux a forte teneur (10–20), spécialement pour la folle avoine, il y avait une petite dépendance sur la teneur en EO pour l'amélioration de l'absorption du 2,4 D. Les adjuvants avec des propriétés d'humectation ont favorisé la pénétration du difenzoquat, mais moins que les surfactants alcool ou nonylphenol. Pour les formulations des deux herbicides marqués au 14C, le transport était directement reliéà la quantité de molécule marquée ayant pénétrée dans le tissu foliaire. Wirkung verschiedener Netzmittel auf die Blattaufnahme von Difenzoquat und 2,4-D am Beispiel von Flug-Hafer und Ackerbohne Der Einfluß verschiedener Zusatzstoffe auf die Blattaufnahme von Difenzoquat und 2,4-D-Na- Salz wurde an Flug-Hafer- und Ackerbohnen-Pflanzen unter kontroUierten Bedingungen untersucht. Die 14C-Herbizide wurden auf die Blatter mit etwa 0,2 μl großen Tröpfchen einer Lösung mit 0,5 g 1?1 AS und 0,05 bis 5 g 1?1 des Zusatzstoffs ausgebracht. Durch Zugabe von nichtionischen Polyoxyethylen-Netzmittein zu den Lösungen der beiden Herbizide konnte die Blattaufnahme erheblich gesteigert werden. Aliphatische C13C15-Alkohol-Netzmittel förderten die Aufnahme mehr als Nonylphenol-Netzmittel, wenn sie mit equivalenten Konzentrationen und Ethylenoxid-(EO)Gehalten ausgebracht wurden. Die Schwelle für die Steigerung der Difenzoquat-Aufnahme durch Netzmittel lag bei Flug-Hafer sehr niedrig (0,05 g 1?1), bei der Ackerbohne vielhöher (>0,5 g 1?1). Bei 2,4-D wurden bei beiden Arten zur deutlichen Förderung der Aufnahme Netzmittelkonzentrationen von >0,5 g 1?1 benötigt. Obwohl Netzmittel mit niedrigem EO-Gehalt (5–6) die Difenzoquat-Aufnahme weniger förderten als solche mit höherem Gehalt (10–20). besonders bei Flug-Hafer, ergab sich für die Förderung der 2,4-D-Aufnahme kaum eine Abhängigkeit vom EO-Gehalt des Netzmittels. Additive mit feuchtigkeitshaltenden Eigenschaften förderten auch die Aufnahme von Difenzoquat, aber weniger als alkoholische oder nonylphenolische Netzmittel. Die Translokation der Mischungen der beiden 14C-Herbizide stand in direktem Verhäitnis zur Radioaktivitätsmenge, die in das Blattgewebe aufgenommen wurde.  相似文献

The effects of octylphenol (OP) and four of its ethoxylated derivatives on uptake into, and distribution within, maize leaf of 2-deoxy-glucose (2D-glucose), atrazine and o, p′-DDT are reported. The surfactants and OP (2 g litre?1 in aqueous acetone) increased the uptake, at both 1.5 and 24 h, of the three model compounds (applied at 1 g litre?1) having water solubilities in the g, mg and μg litre?1 ranges. The uptake of 2D-glucose was positively correlated with the hygroscopicity of the surfactants. The uptake of DDT and atrazine increased with the uptake of the surfactants, being inversely related to their hydrophile:lipophile balance (HLB). Uptake of 2D-glucose and atrazine was enhanced at high humidity, the relative enhancement for atrazine increasing with increasing ethylene oxide (EO) content of the surfactants. A significant proportion of the atrazine and DDT entering the leaf was recovered from the epicuticular wax, the amount of atrazine recovered from the wax increasing with the EO content of the surfactants. The proportion of the surfactants taken up which was recovered from the epicuticular wax was minimal at an EO content of 12.5–16 mole equivalents. The appearance of the deposits on the leaf surface differed markedly among the surfactants, with similar trends for all three chemicals and without visible evidence for infiltration of the stomatal pores. The total quantities of glucose and atrazine translocated were increased by all surfactants but that of DDT was not, despite increases in uptake of up to 7.5-fold. Relative translocation (export from treated region of leaf as a percentage of chemical penetrating beyond the epicuticular wax) was reduced in all cases in the presence of surfactant. Up to 30% of the applied [14C]chemicals was not recovered from the treated leaf after 24 h. The reduced recovery of 2D-glucose, but not that of atrazine and DDT, was largely attributable to movement out of the treated leaf, with approximately 70% of the chemical taken up being translocated basipetally. Loss of atrazine and DDT was a result of volatilisation. There was no evidence that either [14C]2 D-glucose or [14C]atrazine was metabolised to [14C]carbon dioxide.  相似文献

The effects of the fungicides benomyl, thiophanate-methyl and triadimefon on the chrysomelid beetle Gastrophysa polygoni were investigated in the laboratory. Contact with a suspension of benomyl (1.5 g a. i. litre?1 did not affect the hatchability of the eggs. Larvae were reared on shoots of knotgrass (Polygonum aviculare) that had been sprayed with suspensions of benomyl, ranging in concentration from 0.1 to 5.0 g a. i. litre?1. The mortality to the adult stage, of larvae reared on shoots treated with concentrations of benomyl of 0.5 g a. i. litre?1 and above, was significantly higher than that of control larvae. At concentrations of 2.0 g a. i. litre?1 and above, no larvae survived to the adult stage. The LD50 was 0.78 g a. i. benomyl litre?1. The LT50 values at concentrations of 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 g a. i. benomyl litre?1 were 22.6, 12.6 and 5.3 days, respectively. The mean weights of adults bred from larvae that had been reared on shoots treated with benomyl (0.5 and 1.0 g a. i. litre?1) were significantly less than those of adults bred from control larvae. The mortality of larvae, reared on shoots of P. aviculare treated with triadimefon (0.5 g a. i. litre?1) or thiophanate-methyl (1.0 g a. i. litre?1), was also significantly higher than that of control larvae. Females kept on plants of P. aviculare treated with benomyl (1.5 g a. i. litre?1) laid similar numbers of eggs to those kept on untreated plants, and the hatchability of the eggs was not affected.  相似文献

The effect of the monooxygenase inhibitor, 1-aminobenzotriazole (ABT) on isoproturon phytotoxicity and metabolism was studied in resistant (R) and susceptible (S) biotypes of Phalaris minor and in wheat (Triticum aestivum). Addition of ABT (2·5, 5 and 10 mg litre-1) to isoproturon (0·25, 0·5, 1, 2 and 4 mg litre-1) in the nutrient solution significantly enhanced the phytotoxicity of isoproturon against the R biotype. Isoproturon at 0·25 mg litre-1 reduced the dry weight (DW) of the S biotype by 77%, whereas the R biotype required 4·0 mg litre-1 for similar reduction. Addition of 10 mg litre-1 of ABT to the 0·25 mg litre-1 isoproturon caused 71 and 82% reduction in DW of R and S biotypes, respectively. Wheat was more sensitive to the mixture of isoproturon and ABT than the R biotype of P. minor. Reduced concentrations of ABT in the mixture from 10 to 2·5 mg litre-1 increased the DW of the R biotype more than that of the S biotype. The R biotype metabolised [14C]isoproturon at a faster rate than the S biotype. ABT (5 mg litre-1) inhibited the degradation of [14C]isoproturon in both biotypes of P. minor and in wheat. In the presence of ABT, about half of the applied [14C]isoproturon remained as parent herbicide in all the three species after two days. The metabolites were similar in the R and S biotypes and wheat as determined by co-chromatography with reference standards and mass spectroscopy (MS). ABT inhibited the appearance of the hydroxy and monomethyl metabolites and their conjugates in all the test plants. These results suggest that the activity of the enzymes responsible for the degradation of isoproturon is greater in the R than in the S biotype of P. minor, resulting in its rapid detoxification. Incorporation of the monooxygenase inhibitor ABT into the nutrient solution greatly inhibited the degradation of [14C]isoproturon in the R biotype and increased its phytotoxicity. Both hydroxylation and N-dealkylation reactions were found to be sensitive to ABT; inhibition of hydroxylation was greater than that of demethylation. Since ABT could not completely suppress isoproturon degradation, it is possible that more than one monooxygenase is involved. © 1998 SCI  相似文献

Petroleum spray oil (2, 4 and 6% in water) was applied to Valencia orange, Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck, for the control of Chinese wax scale, Ceroplastes sinensis del Guercio, using a low-volume ( <2000 litre ha?1)air-blast (LV AB) sprayer, a low- to high-volume (L-HV) (up to 7000 litre ha?1) sprayer with four fan-assisted rotary atomiser (FARA) spray heads mounted on a vertical tower, and a high-volume (>7000 litre ha?1) oscillating boom (HV OB) sprayer. The most effective sprayer was the L-HV FARA sprayer. The most cost-effective treatment was a 20 ml litre?1 (60 litre oil ha?1) spray applied at 3000 litre ha?1 by the L-HV FARA sprayer. It gave mortality equivalent to a standard 20 ml litre?1, 10 700 litre ha?1 spray (214 litre oil ha?1) applied by the HV OB sprayer but with 72% less spray and significantly less oil deposited per cm2 of leaf area. Equivalent or significantly (P = 0·05) higher mortality than that given by the 10 700 litre ha?1 HV OB spray was given by the 40 ml litre?1, 3000 (120 litre oil ha?1) and 60 ml litre?1, 2180 and 3000 litre ha?1 (130·8 and 180 litre oil ha?1) L-HV FARA sprays, but the 60 ml litre?1 sprays deposited more oil per cm2 than the 20 ml litre?1 HV OB spray and were considered to be potentially phytotoxic. The least effective sprayer was the LV AB sprayer, which applied a 60 ml litre?1 spray (57·6 litre oil ha?1) at 960 litre ha?1. Linear relationships were established for Chinese wax scale mortality, transformed using an angular transformation (arcsin proportion), versus log10 spray volume for the 20, 40 and 60 ml litre?1 sprays applied by L-HV FARA at 1260,2180 and 3000 litre ha?1, mortality versus log10 μg oil cm?2 and log10 μg oil versus log10 volume of oil sprayed.  相似文献

A CIPAC/AOAC test with tomato plants is used to specify the volatility ratings of herbicide ester formulations. This work compares the tomato plant test with an alternative chemical one. The concentrations of esters and the effective molecular weight and density of each formulation were used with the ester vapour pressures to calculate its herbicide vapour pressure as complete, and evaporated formulations. The range was from 28.8 mPa (at 257deg;C) for a mixture of 2,4–D esters to 0–07 mPa (at 25°C) for a 2,4,5–T-(iso-octyl) formulation, as complete formulations, and 35-5 and 0–16 mPa (at 25°C) as evaporated ones. A value of 0–6 mPa (at 25°C) was selected on the basis of the tomato plant test as the cut-off area for low-volatile esters and is recommended to be included in specifications for herbicide esters. Formulations with a herbicide vapour pressure above 3.3 mPa (at 25°C) are high-volatile ones according to the tomato plant test, while between 0–6–3.3 mPa (at 25°C) is a borderline region where the test gives mixed results. Levels of 2,4–D-ethyl and methyl were added to pure 2–ethylhexyl esters of 2,4–D and a 2,4,5–T-(iso-octyl) formulation to find what level of contamination would change the rating of these esters from low to high volatile. Formulations of 2,4–D-(iso-octyl) should not contain more than 11 g litre?1 2,4–D as methyl ester or 2.0 g litre?1 2,4–D as ethyl ester. Formulations of 2,4,5–T-(iso-octyl) should not contain more than 26 g litre?1 2,4–D as methyl ester or 4.7g litre?1 2,4–D as ethyl ester.  相似文献

A method is described for the analysis of small amounts of hydrazine in maleic hydrazide formulations. Following derivative formation with pentafluorobenz-aldehyde, the pentafluorobenzaldehyde azine was extracted with hexane and determined by gas-liquid chromatography with electron-capture detection. Recoveries of 72-80% were obtained from samples fortified with 1 and 10 μg of hydrazine. The limit of detection was 0.05 mg kg?1. Fourteen commercial formulations with maleic hydrazide concentrations ranging from 180-360 g litre?1 were investigated. The hydrazine content of the maleic hydrazide used in these formulations ranged from less than 0.05 to 53 mg kg?1. During the storage of two samples at 50°C for 10 weeks, the hydrazine contents increased from 2.2 to 124 and 0.4 to 54 mg litre?1, respectively.  相似文献

Several factors which may influence the germination of wheat fumigated with hydrogen cyanide or carbonyl sulphide were investigated. Dosages of hydrogen cyanide ranged from 10 mg litre−1 for 24-h exposure up to 150 mg litre−1 for 96-h exposure. Dosages of carbonyl sulphide ranged from 25 mg litre−1 for 24-h exposure up to 500 mg litre−1 for 72-h exposure. The experiments were conducted on wheat of 11·4, 13·8 and 15·7% moisture content. The higher levels of these fumigants exceed those needed for control of insects in wheat. Germination was not diminished and may have been slightly enhanced with hydrogen cyanide, but was diminished by high levels of carbonyl sulphide in the drier wheat. The plumule length was reduced following all dosages of hydrogen cyanide, but only after high dosages of carbonyl sulphide, especially on the driest wheat. It is concluded that hydrogen cyanide and carbonyl sulphide could be used to control insects in wheat without affecting seed viability, provided that concentrations are carefully controlled.  相似文献

The new powdery mildew fungicide quinoxyfen belongs to the novel quinoline class of chemistry. Although its biochemical mode of action is unknown, quinoxyfen does not act in the same way as other cereal fungicides. It is a systemic protectant which inhibits the early stages of mildew infection on a wide range of crops, and provides season-long protection from a single early-season spray applied around GS 31. The base-line sensitivity profile of quinoxyfen was defined for barley powdery mildew (Erysiphe graminis f.sp. hordei) from over 340 field isolates collected from different parts of the UK from 1991 onwards. Sensitivities ranged from <0·0001→0·16 mg litre-1 with a mean of 0·003 mg litre-1. Current work is extending the base-line sensitivity studies to wheat powdery mildew (E. graminis f.sp. tritici), and includes isolates from European trials, but so far this new data set has shown no differences from barley powdery mildew. Quinoxyfen-resistant mutants were generated in the laboratory, and some similar resistant strains were obtained from treated field crops. These laboratory and field strains were always defective, in some way, for sporulation and, curiously, all required the presence of quinoxyfen for survival in culture. Attempts to generate resistant mutants that sporulated normally were unsuccessful. These studies suggested that the resistance risk for quinoxyfen is low. The recommended anti-resistance strategy accompanying introduction of quinoxyfen avoids seed treatments and late-season applications. Instead, a single early (GS 31) treatment using either pre-formulated mixtures or alternating with a fungicide with different mode of action is recommended. This strategy will be supported by continued monitoring of wheat and barley powdery mildew. ©1997 SCI  相似文献

Interactions occurring during the surfactant-enhanced foliar uptake of seven model organic compounds were examined using two homogeneous surfactants, hexaethylene glycol monotridecyl ether (C13E6) and hexadecaethylene glycol monododecyl ether (C12E16). Surfactant–compound and compound–surfactant interactions were detected by measurement of their relative uptake rates following application of c. 0·2 μl droplets of the corresponding radiolabelled formulations. The magnitude of surfactant–compound interaction was found to vary according to the physicochemical properties of both the compound and the surfactant, and was influenced by surfactant concentration and target plant species. Interactive and non-interactive mechanisms, both leading to substantial enhancement of compound uptake, could be identified, but their precise nature could not be elucidated. Although penetration of C13E6 into the site of application appeared to be essential in order to activate the uptake of a compound, substantial absorption of C12E16 was not always required to produce the same effect. The results are discussed in the light of possible sites and modes of action for activator polyoxyethylene surfactant adjuvants.  相似文献

A method is presented to quantify the net effect of disease management on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions per hectare of crop and per tonne of crop produce (grain, animal feed, flour or bioethanol). Calculations were based on experimental and survey data representative of UK wheat production during the period 2004–06. Elite wheat cultivars, with contrasting yields and levels of disease resistance, were compared. Across cultivars, fungicides increased yields by an average of 1·78 t ha?1 and GHG emissions were reduced from 386 to 327 kg CO2 eq. t?1 grain. The amount by which fungicides increased yield – and hence reduced emissions per tonne – was negatively correlated with cultivar resistance to septoria leaf blotch (Mycosphaerella graminicola, anamorph Septoria tritici). GHG emissions of treated cultivars were always less than those of untreated cultivars. Without fungicide use, an additional 0·93 Mt CO2 eq. would be emitted to maintain annual UK grain production at 15 Mt, if the additional land required for wheat production displaced other UK arable crops/set aside. The GHG cost would be much greater if grassland or natural vegetation were displaced. These additional emissions would be reduced substantially if cultivars had more effective septoria leaf blotch resistance. The GHGs associated with UK fungicide use were calculated to be 0·06 Mt CO2 eq. per annum. It was estimated that if it were possible to eliminate diseases completely by increasing disease resistance without any yield penalty and/or developing better fungicides, emissions could theoretically be reduced further to 313 kg CO2 eq. t?1 grain.  相似文献

Downy blight, caused by Peronophythora litchii, is an important disease of lychee (litchi) plants in China. The in vitro sensitivities of various asexual stages of P. litchii to the three carboxylic acid amide (CAA) fungicides dimethomorph, flumorph and pyrimorph were studied with four single‐sporangium isolates. None of the three fungicides affected zoospore discharge from sporangia, but they strongly inhibited mycelial growth (mean EC50 values of 0·075, 0·258 and 0·115 mg L?1, respectively); sporangial production (mean EC50 values of 0·085, 0·315 and 0·150 mg L?1, respectively); germination of cystospores (mean EC50 values of 0·140, 0·150 and 0·645 mg L?1, respectively); and germination of sporangia (mean EC50 values of 0·203, 0·5 and 0·743 mg L?1, respectively). As mycelial growth was the most sensitive stage to dimethomorph and pyrimorph, it was chosen to test baseline sensitivities to the three fungicides. In 2007, from 131 isolates collected in Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi provinces, 127, 116 and 113 isolates were used to establish baseline sensitivity for dimethomorph, flumorph and pyrimorph respectively. Isolates from different provinces exhibited similar baseline sensitivity to the same fungicide. Baseline sensitivities to dimethomorph, flumorph and pyrimorph were distributed as unimodal curves, with mean EC50 values of 0·082 (± 0·01), 0·282 (± 0·047), and 0·115 (± 0·032) mg L?1, respectively. This information will serve as a baseline for tracking future changes in sensitivities of P. litchii populations to these three CAA fungicides.  相似文献
