Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Pea absorbed significant amounts of all tested herbicides from aqueous solutions, with very limited absorption from treated soil.
- Intervention effect Alfalfa absorbed significant amounts of all tested herbicides from aqueous solutions, with very limited absorption from treated soil.
- Intervention effect Grape absorbed significant amounts of all tested herbicides from aqueous solutions, with very limited absorption from treated soil.
- Intervention effect Prolonged exposure to herbicide-treated soil did not increase uptake in alfalfa.
- Intervention effect Prolonged exposure to herbicide-treated soil did not increase uptake in grape.
- Intervention effect Prolonged exposure to herbicide-treated soil did not increase uptake in pea.
- Intervention effect Multiple exposure to herbicide-treated soil did not increase uptake in alfalfa.
- Intervention effect Multiple exposure to herbicide-treated soil did not increase uptake in grape.
- Intervention effect Multiple exposure to herbicide-treated soil did not increase uptake in pea.
- Intervention effect High relative humidity enhanced aqueous herbicide absorption in grape.
- Intervention effect High relative humidity enhanced aqueous herbicide absorption in pea.
- Intervention effect High relative humidity did not enhance herbicide absorption from treated soil in alfalfa.
- Intervention effect High relative humidity did not enhance herbicide absorption from treated soil in grape.
- Intervention effect High relative humidity did not enhance herbicide absorption from treated soil in pea.
- Observation All tested herbicides except bromoxynil were readily translocated in alfalfa.
- Observation All tested herbicides except bromoxynil were readily translocated in grape.
- Observation All tested herbicides except bromoxynil were readily translocated in pea.
- Mechanism The authors conclude that the small foliar uptake from herbicide-treated soil is unlikely to cause crop damage.
