Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Increasing bentazon concentrations reduced suspension-cell growth in soybean.
- Observation Soybean plants were tolerant to postemergence bentazon.
- Observation Velvetleaf plants were susceptible to postemergence bentazon.
- Observation Log-phase cells contained about 6 nmol/g fresh weight of 14 C after bentazon incubation.
- Observation Log-phase cells contained about 6 nmol/g fresh weight of 14 C after bentazon incubation.
- Observation In soybean cells, 57 to 92% of 14 C was glucosyl conjugates of 6-OH- and 8-OH-bentazon, depending on growth phase.
- Observation Bentazon metabolism was greatest in the stationary phase.
- Observation Soybean hypocotyl sections formed the same two bentazon metabolites as suspension cells.
- Observation The 6-O to 8-O glucosyl-bentazon ratio exceeded 1:1 in hypocotyl sections and suspension cells.
- Observation Bentazon metabolites were undetected in velvetleaf cells and hypocotyl sections.
- Observation Bentazon metabolites were undetected in media of either species.
