Abstract

Abstract The effect of acifluorfen and oxyfluorfen on chlorophyll bleaching, lipid peroxidation and photosynthesis in pea leaf discs was studied. Both her‐ bicides induced light‐dependent bleaching and lipid peroxidation, the level of damage being greater at higher light intensities. Photosynthetic carbon dioxide fixation was only partially inhibited in treated leaf discs incubated in darkness, thus indicating that these herbicides did not inhibit photo‐ synthesis as a primary mode of action. Leaf discs maintained in darkness showed no visible signs of injury, and light‐dependent herbicide‐induced damage was reduced by incubating discs under nitrogen, orpre‐incubating them with the electron‐transport inhibitor monuron. It is suggested that acifluorfen and oxyfluorfen are activated by a light‐dependent process, which requires photosynthetic electron transport.
