Abstract:The influence of the experimental herbicide safener BAS-145–138 on the toxicity of imazaquin and metsulfuron-methyl was investigated in two corn varieties in growth chamber bioassays. BAS-145–138 alone slightly decreased root and shoot growth but this decrease was not dependent on the safener concentration. The imbibition of seeds of both corn varieties with low levels of safener caused substantially less damage in the roots and shoots especially with the highest metsulfuron-methyl doses used in the study.
