Abstract

Significant losses in agricultural production are due to abiotic stresses, such as herbicide phytotoxicity. Dicamba (diglycolamine salt) is a herbicide used for post-emergent control of broadleaf weeds. It has a possibility to vapor-spread into neighboring fields causing damage to other crops. However, not every stress can be easily identified. Therefore, remote sensing has the potential as a new tool in early injury detection. This study evaluated the effects of simulated dicamba drift on the occurrence of phytotoxicity in soybeans (Glycine max). Soybean was assessed in seven dicamba doses (0, 0.056, 0.56, 5.6, 11.2, 28, 112 g ha−1) for changes in plant injury (scale of notes), spectral aspects (triangular greenness index (TGI), and shoot dry mass. The plants were photographed using a digital camera positioned at 1.2 m above the planting media level. The results indicate a positive effect of low dicamba doses (0.56 and 0.056 g a.e. ha−1) on TGI canopy distinction and shoot dry mass. Soybean TGI canopy distinction and the injury scale estimated at 45 days after sowing, and the soybean shoot dry mass observed at 99 days after sowing, presented significant and moderate Pearson’s r coefficient of correlations (r = −0.609 and 0.625), indicating TGI as a valid and practical spectral index for plant dicamba-injured evaluations.
