The effects of soil temperature and soil moisture content on the rates of degradation of atrazine, linuron and metolachlor were measured in the laboratory in soil from different sites in the USA. Persistence of the herbicides was measured in the same soils in the field during the summers of 1978 and 1979. Weather records from the different sites for the periods of the field experiments were used in conjunction with appropriate constants derived from the laboratory data in a computer program to simulate persistence in the field. There was a general tendency for the model to overestimate the observed soil residues. For example, with atrazine, 40 of the 48 measured residues were lower than those predicted by the model; seven were more than 30% below and two were more than 50% below. With metolachlor, 16 of the 48 measured residues were more than 30% below those predicted and six were more than 50% below; almost identical results were obtained with linuron. When the model overestimated late-season residues by a large amount, the discrepancies between predicted and observed data were usually apparent from early in the experiment. Possible reasons for the discrepancies are discussed.  相似文献

Residual effects of chlorotriazine herbicides in soil at three Rumanian sites. I. Prediction of the persistence of simazine and atrazine Persistence of simazine and atrazine in the top 10 cm soil was measured at three sites in Rumania with variations in climate and soil conditions. Both herbicides were applied at 1 and 3 kg ai ha?1 to uncropped plots and to plots cropped with maize (Zea mays L.). Rates of residue decline were independent of application rate and crop cover but varied between sites. The time for 50% loss of atrazine varied from 36 to 68 days and that of simazine from 48 to 70 days. Laboratory studies were made with atrazine to characterize degradation rates under standard conditions and to measure adsorption and leaching behaviour in the different soils. Weather records for the periods of the field experiments were used in conjunction with appropriate constants derived from the laboratory results, or from data in the literature, in a computer program to simulate persistence in the field. Results from the model were in reasonable agreement with the observed soil residues although there was a tendency to overestimate rates of loss on some occasions. The results suggest that the model of persistence was sufficiently accurate for practical purposes, and that its use could preclude the need for extensive analytical measurements of residues.  相似文献

The effects of soil temperature and soil moisture content on the rate of simazine degradation were measured in the laboratory in soils from sixteen sites located in several different countries. First-order half-lives under standard incubation conditions were significantly correlated with clay content, organic carbon content and soil pH in a multiple linear regression. The temperature dependence of degradation was similar in the different soils whereas the moisture dependence showed considerable variation between soils. Persistence of simazine was also measured in the same soils in the field and at live additional sites. Weather records from the different sites for the periods of the Held experiments were used in conjunction with constants derived from the laboratory data in a computer program to simulate persistence in the field. In general, the model overestimated residues in the field. About half of the calculated residues were within 25% of those observed, an accuracy sufficient for practical purposes, but on several occasions the discrepancies between calculated and observed residues were greater than 50%. Possible reasons for the discrepancies and requirements for further experiments are discussed.  相似文献

The persistence of atrazine was monitored in three fields at different sites in Spain during two consecutive years (1990 and 1991). Laboratory assays for determining the influence of temperature and soil moisture content on the rate of herbicide degradation were carried out on soil samples from the same fields. The degradation constants derived from these assays, together with weather records for the period of the field experiments, were used in a computer program which simulated herbicide persistence in the field. Some adjustments were made to adapt the model to Spanish conditions. The model predicted with reasonable accuracy the persistence of the herbicide in two soils, although there was a tendency to overestimate the residues at early dates. Discrepancies between predicted and measured residues were greater in the third soil, due to rapid initial losses that were not predicted by the program. In this case, the agreement was improved if the program was run taking time zero to be one month after herbicide application. Possible reasons for these discrepancies are discussed.  相似文献

The spatial variability in mineralization of atrazine, isoproturon and metamitron in soil and subsoil samples taken from a 135-ha catchment in north France was studied. Fifty-one samples from the top layer were taken to represent exhaustively the 31 agricultural fields and 21 soil types of the catchment. Sixteen additional samples were collected between depths of 0.7 and 10 m to represent the major geological materials encountered in the vadose zone of the catchment. All these samples were incubated with 14C-labelled atrazine under laboratory conditions at 28 degrees C. Fourteen selected surface samples which exhibited distinctly different behaviour for atrazine dissipation (including sorption and mineralization) were incubated with 14C-isoproturon and 14C-metamitron. Overall soil microbial activity and specific herbicide degradation activities were monitored during the incubations through measurements of total carbon dioxide and 14C-carbon dioxide respectively. At the end of the incubations, extractable and non-extractable (bound) residues remaining in soils were measured. Variability of herbicide dissipation half-life in soil surface samples was lower for atrazine and metamitron (CV < 12%) than for isoproturon (CV = 46%). The main contributor to the isoproturon dissipation variability was the variability of the extractable residues. For the other herbicides, spatial variability was mainly related to the variability of their mineralization. In all cases, herbicide mineralization half-lives showed higher variability than those of dissipation. Sorption or physicochemical soil properties could not explain atrazine and isoproturon degradation, whose main factors were probably directly related to the dynamics of the specific microbial degradation activity. In contrast, variability of metamitron degradation was significantly correlated to sorption coefficient (K(d)) through correlation with the sorptive soil components, organic matter and clay. Herbicide degradation decreased with depth as did the overall microbial activity. Atrazine mineralization activity was found down to a depth of 2.5 m; beyond that, it was negligible.  相似文献

A modified version of the model Opus was applied to measurements of soil water dynamics and atrazine (6-chloro-N2-ethyl-N4-isopropyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diamine) persistence in a Bruntwood silt loam soil (Haplic Andosol, FAO system) in Hamilton, New Zealand. The modified model, Opus2, is briefly described and parameter estimation for the simulations is discussed. Soil water dynamics were more accurately described by applying measured soil hydraulic properties than by estimating them using pedotransfer functions. A parameter sensitivity analysis revealed that degradation was the most relevant process in simulating pesticide behaviour by Opus2. The Arrhenius equation incorporated in Opus2 did not correctly describe the effect of temperature on degradation rates obtained at 10, 20 and 30 degrees C. However, as the Arrhenius coefficient is a very sensitive parameter and soil temperature variation was relatively narrow in the field, the Arrhenius coefficient was approximated from the laboratory study. The simulation results obtained were superior to modelling at constant temperature. Field measured persistence of atrazine in the topsoil was underpredicted using the half-life determined in the laboratory at 10 degrees C. Modelling with a lag phase followed by accelerated degradation by use of a sigmoidal degradation equation in Opus2 significantly improved the modelling results. Nevertheless, degradation processes in the laboratory under controlled conditions did not accurately represent field dissipation, however well the laboratory degradation data could be described by simple kinetic equations. The study indicates the importance of improving field techniques for measuring degradation, and developing laboratory protocols that yield degradation data that are more representative of pesticide dynamics in field soils.  相似文献

Residual effects of chlorotriazine herbicides in soil at three Rumanian sites. II. Prediction of the phytotoxicity of atrazine residues to following crops Total and plant-available atrazine residues in the top 10 cm soil were measured 120 days after application of 3 kg ai ha?1 to maize (Zea mays L.) at three sites in Rumania. At one site, similar measurements were made 3?5 years after application of 100 kg ai ha?1. Plant-available atrazine residues were estimated by extraction of soil samples with water, and by bioassay using Brassica rapa as the test plant. It was calculated that between 30 and 120μg atrazine 1?1 was potentially available to plants in the different soils. Dose-response relationships for atrazine and the most important rotational crops with maize in Rumania—sunflower, winter wheat, soybean and flax—were determined in hydroponic culture using herbicide concentrations corresponding with the plant-available fractions measured in the different soils. ED50 values were determined by probit analysis and the results showed that sunflower (ED50, 22μg 1?1) was the most sensitive crop, and soybean (ED50, 78μg 1?1) was the least. The residual phytotoxicity of atrazine to succeeding crops in the different soils was predicted using the appropriate availability and phytotoxicity data, and the results showed good agreement with those observed. The results suggest that measurements of plant-available herbicide residues afford a rapid method of assessing possible phytotoxicity to following crops.  相似文献

The rates of disappearance of atrazine, dichlorprop, linuron and propyzamide were measured in two soils incubated at 22°C and 80% water holding capacity. Observations were made at four pH levels in each soil. Atrazine degradation was relatively insensitive to pH; it increased slightly with increasing pH in one soil and decreased in the other. The other compounds all degraded more slowly at low pH in both soils although dichlorprop had essentially disappeared in 14 days under all conditions, so that the effect of pH is not unlikely to be of practical interest. The ratios of the degradation rates of atrazine, linuron, and propyzamide varied with the soil and the pH.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Enhanced atrazine degradation has been observed in agricultural soils from around the globe. Soils exhibiting enhanced atrazine degradation may be cross-adapted with other s-triazine herbicides, thereby reducing their control of sensitive weed species. The aims of this study were (1) to determine the field persistence of simazine in atrazine-adapted and non-adapted soils, (2) to compare mineralization of ring-labeled (14)C-simazine and (14)C-atrazine between atrazine-adapted and non-adapted soils and (3) to evaluate prickly sida control with simazine in atrazine-adapted and non-adapted soils.RESULTS: Pooled over two pre-emergent (PRE) application dates, simazine field persistence was 1.4-fold lower in atrazine-adapted than in non-adapted soils. For both simazine and atrazine, the mineralization lag phase was 4.3-fold shorter and the mineralization rate constant was 3.5-fold higher in atrazine-adapted than in non-adapted soils. Collectively, the persistence and mineralization data confirm cross-adaptation between these s-triazine herbicides. In non-adapted soils, simazine PRE at the 15 March and 17 April planting dates reduced prickly sida density at least 5.4-fold compared with the no simazine PRE treatment. Conversely, in atrazine-adapted soils, prickly sida densities were not statistically different between simazine PRE and no simazine PRE at either planting date, thereby indicating reduced simazine efficacy in atrazine-adapted soils.CONCLUSIONS: Results demonstrate the potential for cross-adaptation among s-triazine herbicides and the subsequent reduction in the control of otherwise sensitive weed species.

Rapid dissipation of atrazine in soils taken from various maize fields   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
A laboratory study was carried out in order to measure the degradation rate of atrazine in 36 different soils taken from maize ( Zea mays L.) fields in Belgium. These soils differed in their alrazme treatment histories. pH. organic matter content and type of organic and mineral fertili-zation, Half-lives of less than 10 days were found in more than 60% of the soils sampled. This rapid dissipation could be linked in a significant way to repeated pretreaiments with atrazine (intensive maize cropping) as well as to higher pH values (from neutral to alkaline), A low organic matter content might also be a factor explaining the rapid degradation of atrazine. but to a lesser extent than the first two factors. On the other hand mineral fertilization was shown to slow down atrazine dissipation. It is hypothesized that repeated treatments of atrazine cause a mi-crobial adaptation to atrazine degradation and that acidic soil conditions impede this adaptation. To date, this is the first time that evidence for widespread accelerated degradation of atrazine has been reported.  相似文献

Dissipation of atrazine after pre-emergence application to irrigated grain sorghum was investigated in an experiment on a Birganbigil clay loam at Yanco Agricultural Research Centre in the Murrumbidgee Irrigation Areas of New South Wales. Dissipation followed first-order kinetics with a half-life of 70 days. This rate of disappearance did not differ significantly between application rates of 2.5 and 10 kg/ha. Removal of volunteer plant growth with non-residual chemicals or by cultivation during the winter fallow periods had no significant effect on the levels of atrazine residues in the soil and dissipation rate did not differ significantly between the 2 years of the experiment. A laboratory incubation experiment demonstrated that dissipation of atrazine in Birganbigil soil was more rapid than in three other soils from the Murrumbidgee and Murray Valleys. Dissipation rate and atrazine adsorption were both correlated with the organic carbon content of the soils, which ranged from 1.43% to 0.72%. There was no correlation between either dissipation rate or adsorption and clay content, even though clay contents ranged from 37 to 78%.  相似文献

The degradation and formation of major chlorinated metabolites of terbuthylazine and atrazine in three soils (loamy clay, calcareous clay and high clay) were studied in laboratory experiments using molecules labelled with 14C on the s-triazine ring. Soil microcosms were treated with the equivalent of 1 kg ha-1 of herbicide and incubated in the dark for 45 days at 20(±1)°C. The quantity of [14C]carbon dioxide evolved in the soils treated with atrazine was negligible and could not be attributed to mineralization of the parent molecule. The mineralization of terbuthylazine accounted for 0·9–1·2% of the initial radioactivity. In the soils studied, the extrapolated half-lives varied from 88 to 116 days for terbuthylazine and 66 to 105 days for atrazine, with no significant differences for the three soils and the two molecules. The deethyl metabolites of the two s-triazines and the deisopropyl-atrazine metabolite appeared during the incubation in the three soils. The completely dealkylated metabolite was not detected in any of the soils. After 45 days of incubation, the non-extractable soil residues for the high clay, loamy clay and calcareous clay soils represented for terbuthylazine, 33·5, 38·3 and 43·1% and for atrazine, 19·8, 20·8 and 22·3% of the initial radioactivity. © 1997 SCI.  相似文献

The concentrations of atrazine in the shoots of wheat plants growing in 12 different soils were directly proportional to the soil solution concentrations of herbicide estimated from slurry adsorption measurements. There was a marked discrepancy between the total uptake of herbicide and the amount theoretically supplied by mass-flow in response to transpiration. This discrepancy was less when plants were grown in nutrient solutions. In an experiment with one soil only, the half-life of atrazine was 22 days and when the solution concentration in this soil was corrected for this change, a much closer prediction of atrazine uptake could be obtained. The ways in which interactions between adsorption, breakdown and transpiration rates may affect herbicide toxicity under field conditions are discussed.  相似文献

Reported levels of atrazine in soils at pesticide mix-load sites can vary between 7·9×10-5 mM and 1·9 mM . We report on a mixed microbial culture, capable of degrading concentrations of atrazine in excess of 1·9 mM . At initial concentrations of 0·046 M and 0·23 M , the mixed population degraded 78% and 21% of atrazine in soil (100 days), respectively. At the same initial concentrations in liquid cultures, 90% and 56% of the atrazine was degraded (80 days), respectively. Decreased degradation in soil samples may have resulted from atrazine sorption to soil surfaces or decreased contact between the population and the herbicide. In the 0·23 M system, we attribute incomplete degradation to phosphorous depletion. Data for carbon dioxide evolution was fitted to a three-half-order regression model, but we feel that there are limitations of the application of this model to atrazine degradation. The population uses the herbicide as a nitrogen source and little carbon is incorporated into biomass, as the energy status of carbons in the ring leads to their direct evolution as [14C]carbon dioxide. This situation contributes to an evolution pattern that, when fitted to the three-half-order model, results in underestimation of the biomass produced. Data from our study suggest that our mixed culture could be used for bioremediation of atrazine at concentrations up to and exceeding those currently reported for agrochemical mixing-loading facilities. © 1997 SCI.  相似文献

Atrazine behaviour was investigated in the different pedological horizons from profiles of two non-tilled soils, a Typic Argiustoll and an Entic Haplustoll from the Argentinean pampas. As atrazine use in field conditions was associated with maize cropping, only one type of soil received atrazine every other year. Atrazine behaviour was characterized through the balance of 14C-U-ring atrazine radioactivity among the mineralized fraction, the extractable fraction and the non-extractable bound residues. The composition of the extractable fraction was characterized. Atrazine mineralization was the main dissipation mechanism in the superficial horizon of the Argiustoll because of microbial adaptation after repeated atrazine applications. In contrast, little atrazine mineralization was found in the Haplustoll profile, and it decreased with depth. The capacity of the soil organic matter to form bound residues was characterized using soil-size fractionation. Atrazine-bound residues depended on the soil organic matter content and the size of the fraction. Organic matter in the largest size fractions had a higher capacity to form atrazine-bound residues. In the Argiustoll profile, the atrazine degradation capacity decreased in the subsurface horizons (Bt1 and Bt2), where a large part of bound residues were formed. The deepest horizon (BC) of this profile had a high capacity to degrade atrazine reaching this horizon after a lag period. In the Haplustoll profile, atrazine mineralization and bound residue formation followed the organic carbon mineralization pattern.  相似文献

The movement and persistence of atrazine and metribuzin, in a sandy loam soil following application in spring, was simulated using two models. The first model, based on the physical laws describing water and solute movement and using measured values of soil hydraulic properties, underestimated herbicide mobility in the soil and predicted too rapid drying of the deeper soil layers. The accuracy of the simulations was improved by empirically reducing the measured hydraulic conductivities by a factor of 4. This probably reflects the difficulties of obtaining reliable measurements of soil hydraulic properties. A second and simpler model, which simulated water and herbicide movement using mobile and immobile water categories, accurately predicted soil water contents. It tended to underestimate herbicide movement at short times after application, and to overestimate movement later in the experiments. A comparison of different methods of simulating herbicide degradation showed that prediction of degradation rates in the field from laboratory data can be unsatisfactory with some compounds.  相似文献

Mineralization of atrazine (6-chloro-N2-ethyl-N4-isopropyl-1,3,5- triazine-2,4-diamine) in soil treated with a mixture of atrazine and metolachlor (2-chloro-6′-ethyl-N-(2-methoxy-1-methylethyl)acet-o-toluidide at concentrations typical of point-source contamination (50 μg g−1 each) was significantly greater (P<0·001) in rhizospheric soil from Kochia scoparia (L.) Roth., a herbicide-resistant plant, than in non-vegetated and control soils. Soils were collected from an agrochemical dealership contaminated with several herbicides, including atra-zine, metolachlor, trifluralin (α,α,α-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-N,N-dipropyl-p-toluidine and pendimethalin (N-(1-ethylpropyl)-2,6-dinitro-3,4-xylidene), at concentrations well exceeding the field application rates. Mineralization rates of ring-labeled atrazine in both rhizospheric and non-vegetated soils were quite high (>47% of the initial 14C applied after 36 days) compared to literature values. These results suggest that plants such as Kochia might be managed at pesticide-contaminated sites to help facilitate microbial degradation of wastes such as atrazine in soil.  相似文献

The surface run-off of a number of pesticides (diuron, isoproturon, atrazine, alachlor, aclonifen, trifluralin, lindane and simazine), chosen for their range of adsorption behaviours, was studied using simulated rainfall applied to small plots over a short time (one hour). Pesticides were applied together onto bare soil using two different sandy loam soils from Jaillière and Coet Dan sites. The surface run-off samples were collected throughout the running of the event and concentrations of pesticides were measured in both liquid and solid phases. Sorption isotherms for isoproturon and diuron on Jaillière soil as well as eroded particles were measured under equilibrium conditions and compared to their partitioning during surface run-off. At the rainfall intensity used, both soils generated a large load of eroded particles. The average run-off flow rate increased with time for the Jalliére soil, while it remained relatively constant at a higher level for the Coet Dan soil. The concentrations of each pesticide in the run-off samples decreased as the experiments proceeded. The pesticides were classified into two types by their partitioning between the solid and liquid phases. Atrazine, simazine, diuron, isoproturon and alachlor were mainly transported in surface run-off water. By contrast, 90% of trifluralin and aclonifen was adsorbed onto eroded particles. Lindane was intermediate, with a 37% adsorption level. When the contribution of eroded particles was minor, the agrochemical concentrations were inversely proportional to the water flow rate. We have proposed a model that describes the mass of chemicals extracted from soil into surface water during a surface run-off event of a given average duration and flow rate. This model takes into account the dilution of the soil solution and the desorption of chemicals through two parameters called, respectively, the dilution factor and the extraction retardation factor. The desorption kinetic was the limiting step in the surface run-off of weakly sorbed chemicals, such as isoproturon. © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

A laboratory study was performed to investigate the relationship between chemical (non-biological) and microbial degradation of cyanazine and atrazine in soils ranging in pH from 5.3 to 8.1. Atrazine degradation was dominated by chemical processes in both a moderately acidic and a neutral pH soil, but showed a significant microbial involvement in the neutral pH soil. The primary cyanazine degradative mechanism was dependent on soil properties. Cyanazine was short-lived in neutral to slightly basic soils, due to rapid microbial degradation. Cyanazine amide and cyanazine acid were the major metabolites formed. In a moderately acidic soil, microbial degradation was slowed and chemical processes were the primary means of cyanazine degradation.  相似文献

Five soil samples were taken from each of five fields with different crop management histories. Three of the fields were in an arable rotation, the fourth field was temporary grassland, and the final field was under permanent grass. Of the three arable fields, two had been cropped with winter wheat in three of the preceding 6 years, and the third had last been cropped with winter wheat once only, 6 years previously. With one exception, the winter wheat had been sprayed with the herbicide isoproturon. The rate of isoproturon degradation in laboratory incubations was strongly related to the previous management practices. In the five soils from the field that had been treated most regularly with isoproturon in recent years, <2.5% of the initial dose remained after 14 days, indicating considerable enhancement of degradation. In the soils from the field with two applications of the herbicide in the past 6 years, residues after 27 days varied from 5% to 37% of the amount applied. In soils from the other three sites, residue levels were less variable, and were inversely related to microbial biomass. In studies with selected soils from the field that had received three applications of isoproturon in the previous 6 years, kinetics of degradation were not first‐order but were indicative of microbial adaptation, and the average time to 50% loss of the herbicide (DT50) was 7.5 days. In selected soils from the field that had received just one application of isoproturon, degradation followed first‐order kinetics, indicative of cometabolism. Pre‐incubation of isoproturon in soil from the five fields led to significant enhancement of degradation only in the samples from the two fields that had a recent history of isoproturon application.  相似文献
