Abstract

In field studies burley tobacco grown on soil treated with either carbofuran or disulfoton grew to maturity earlier and produced greater yields than untreated tobacco. Enhanced growth, apparently a physiological response of the plans to the insecticides, was observed only in the high-phosphate soil area of the Middle Tennessee basin.
