Abstract
2,4-D-sodium 80% a.e., 2,4-D-ester 38% a.e. and simazine 50% a.i. were applied at concns. of 0.001-1000 ppm. to seeds of pea and sorghum. 2,4-D-sodium at 1 ppm. and 2,4-D-ester at 10 ppm. significantly affected pea germination but simazine had no effect. 2,4-D-ester was the only herbicide significantly to inhibit germination of sorghum and then only at 1000 ppm.; seeds of high carbohydrate content were more resistant to herbicides than seeds of high protein content.ADDITIONAL ABSTRACT:Seeds of peas and sorghum were soaked in 0-1000 ppm 2,4-D Na, Bladex (2,4-D ester) and simazine a.i. for 5 h. Simazine and 2,4-D had no adverse effect on germination in sorghum; Bladex at 1000 ppm decreased it. Simazine had no effect on germination in peas; <1 ppm 2,4-D and >10 ppm Bladex decreased it
