Abstract
MCPA, 2,4-DB, flumetsulam, bentazon, haloxyfop-methyl, flumetsulam/2,4-DB and bentazon/MCPA were studied in greenhouse experiments in order to evaluate their primary effects on red clover (Trifolium pratense) growth and root injury. The influence of these herbicides on root length, plant height, crown diameter, shoot and root dry weights, shoot phytotoxicity and root injury were studied at two application rates. Variable responses in the growth parameters were observed throughout the experimental period. Herbicides did not affect root length. By the end of experiment, plant height was increased by all herbicides except MCPA and bentazon/MCPA. Crown diameter was increased only with MCPA and 2,4-DB, whereas it was not affected by the other herbicides. Bentazon reduced root dry weight while the other herbicides had no effect. In general, MCPA, bentazon, and bentazon/MCPA reduced shoot dry weight. Although all herbicides caused early foliar damage, the plants recovered by the end of expe-riment comparable to the control plants. Bentazon and bentazon/MCPA produced the greatest shoot damage. Roots were injured from all herbicides, yet they usually recovered over time. However, bentazon/MCPA induced more severe root injury, up to 17% of the plants, causing seedlings died. These results suggest that some herbicides used to protect red clover against weeds may also affect red clover development, increasing its vulnerability to disease.
Résumé
Le MCPA, le 2,4-DB, le flumetsulam, le bentazone, le haloxyfop-méthyl, le flumetsulam/2,4-DB et le bentazone/MCPA ont été étudiés lors d’expériences en serre afin d’évaluer leurs principaux effets sur la croissance du trèfle rouge (Trifolium pratense) ainsi que sur les dommages racinaires qu’ils pourraient lui causer. Les conséquences qu’ont ces herbicides sur la longueur des racines, la taille de la plante, le diamètre du collet, les poids secs des tiges et des racines, ainsi que leur phytotoxicité pour les tiges et les dommages aux racines ont été étudiés pour deux doses d’application. Les paramètres de croissance ont eu des résultats indépendants les uns des autres tout au long de la durée des expériences. Les herbicides n’ont pas eu d’effet sur la longueur des racines. À la fin des expériences, la taille de la plante avait été augmentée par tous les herbicides sauf le MCPA et le bentazone/MCPA. Le diamètre du collet n’avait été augmenté que par le MCPA et le 2,4-DB, alors que les autres herbicides n’avaient pas eu d’effet. Le bentazone a fait diminuer le poids sec des racines alors que les autres herbicides n’ont pas eu d’effet. Le MCPA, le bentazone et le bentazone/MCPA ont habituellement réduit le poids sec des tiges. Bien que tous les herbicides aient endommagé les feuilles peu après leur application, les plantes s’étaient rétablies pour être semblables aux témoins à la fin des expériences. Le bentazone et le bentazone/MCPA ont causé le plus de dommage aux tiges. Les racines ont été endommagées par tous les herbicides, mais elles ont habituellement récupéré par la suite. Cependant, le bentazone/MCPA a causé des dommages plus graves aux racines, sur jusqu’à 17 % des plantes, tuant les plantules. Ces résultats laissent penser que certains herbicides, utilisés pour protéger le trèfle rouge des mauvaises herbes, peuvent aussi affecter son développement et augmenter sa vulnérabilité aux maladies.
