Abstract:The degree of tolerance to the sulfonylurea herbicide rimsulfuron (R) was investigated in five different commercial maize hybrids: Sirena (Si), Sara (Sa), Eleonora (El), Gitana (Gi) and Lucia (Lu). The susceptibility of the hybrids to R treatment was investigated by checking their protein content and evaluating R persistence in the maize hybrids as well as the activity and kinetic parameters of the target enzyme they contain, acetolactate syntase (ALS). 72 hours after treatment, decreases in the protein conten… Show more
