e0“Glyphosate was applied in two growth stages: in stages 3-4 and 6-7 of fully formed maize leaves”
e2“Significant phytotoxicity on maize plants in the form of chlorosis, leaf curling and notable necrotic area was found when applying glyphosate in the dose of 160 g ha-1 in the phase of 6-7 leaves”
e3“Maize hybrids tested in this treatment have achieved an 81% lower yield on average, when compared to the control”

- Intervention effect Glyphosate at 160 g ha-1 applied at 3-4 maize leaves caused only slight damage without affecting height and grain yield.
- Intervention effect Phytotoxicity of glyphosate was not observed at lower applied doses than 160 g ha-1 at 3-4 maize leaves.
- Intervention effect Glyphosate at 160 g ha-1 applied at 6-7 maize leaves caused significant phytotoxicity with chlorosis, leaf curling and necrotic area.
- Intervention effect Glyphosate at 80 g ha-1 reduced maize yield by 30% relative to the control.
- Intervention effect Lower glyphosate doses reduced maize yield by 25 to 18% relative to the control.
