Title: Basis and reversal of Na-bentazon antagonism on sethoxydim absorption and activity

Thesis/Dissertation ·
OSTI ID:7191700

Various experimental adjuvants, including surfactants, paraffinic oil and soybean oil based crop oil concentrates (COC), were tested to maximize the herbicidal activity of sethoxydim /2(1-(ethoxyimino)butyl)-5-/2-(ethylthio)-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one// and bentazon (3-isopropyl-1H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazine-4(/sup 3/H)-one 2,2- dioxide). Identification of superior adjuvants was done by measuring the effects of these experimental adjuvants on herbicide spray droplet spreadability and /sup 14/C-herbicide absorption on target weed leaves.
