Abstract

Abstract Of 165 combinations of pesticides screened on two plant species in the greenhouse, 13 combinations indicated a phytotoxic interaction on at least one plant species. Combinations of the herbicide 3‐(3,4‐dichlorophenyl)‐1,1‐dimethylurea (diuron) plus the insecticides O,O ‐diethyl S ‐[2‐(ethylthio)ethyl] phosphorodithioate (disulfoton) or 1‐naphthyl methylcarbamate (carbaryl) in soil were synergistically phytotoxic to oats ( Avena sativa L.) and cucumbers ( Cucumis sativus L.). A fungicide, p ‐(dimethylamino) benzenediazo sodium sulfonate, was antagonistic to the herbicidal activity of all s ‐triazine herbicides tested on cucumbers in greenhouse experiments, but not in the field or to other plant species. The fungicide apparently limited root uptake of the s ‐triazine herbicides by limiting root growth. No chemical reaction was observed between the fungicide and the s ‐triazine herbicides.
