Herbicide mixtures are used to increase efficacy on broad-leaved as well as grass weeds and/or to reduce input costs. Components of mixtures may, however, induce antagonism. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of tralkoxydim (2-(1 [etoxyimino)propyl]-3-hydroxy-5-(2,4,6-ttimethylphenyl) cyclohex-2-enome) in combination with chlorsulfuron (2-chloro-N-[[(4-methoxy-6-methyl-1 ,3,5-ttiazine2yl) (4-methoxy-6-methyl-1 ,3,5-triazine-2-yl)methylamino] carbonyl] amino]sulfonyl]benzoic acid on oats (Avena sativa L.) when applied as a tank mixture at different rates in a glasshouse. Significant differences were found between treatments, which indicated that antagonism occurs with the application of the above mentioned herbicides when applied as a tank mixture. Tralkoxydim at the registered rate (218 9 a.i. ha· 1 ) gave very good control on oats, which were not affected when chlorsulfuron (13.3 9 a i. ha· 1 ) was added. Tribenuron on the other hand surely antagonized the tralkoxydim efficacy on oats and this negative response could not be alleviated with the addition of ammoniumsulphate.Mengsels van onkruiddoders word aangewend vIr beter beheer van beide breeblaaronkruide en grasse en/of om insetkostes te verlaag. Komponente van mengsels kan egter lei tot antagonisme. Die doel van die studie was om die effektiwiteit van tralkoksidim (2-(1-[etoksie-imieno)propiel]-3-hidroksie-5-(2,4,6 trimetielfeniel)s ikloheks-2-enoon) in kombinasie met chlorsulfuron (2-chloro-N-[[(4metoksie-6-metiel-1 ,3,5-triasien2yl) -[[[[(4-metoksie-6-metiel-1 ,3,5-triasien-2-yl]metielaminojkarbonieljaminoj sulfonielj benzoiek te evalueer, indien die produkte as 'n tenkmengsel teen verskillende dosisse toegedien word op hawer (Avena sativa L.) onder glashuis toestande. Goeie beheer van hawer is verkry met die geregistreerde dosis van 218.8 9 ab ha· 1 tralkoxydim. Hierdie beheer is nie negatief be"invioed wanneer chlorsulfuron teen 13.3 g ab ha· 1 in 'n mengsel met tralkoxydim toegedien is nie. Wanneer tribenuron in 'n tenkmengsel met tralkoxydim toegedien is, is die werking op hawer negatief bernvloed. Hierdie negatatiewe invloed van lribenuron op tralkoxydim kon nie met die byvoeging van ammoniumsulfaat oorkom word nie.amin ojkarbonieljbenseensulfonamiede en tribenuron 2
