Abstract/Contents: | Discusses bioassays, defining them as "[techniques] for determining if herbicide (or other chemical) residues are present in soil or water at high enough concentrations to adversely affect plant growth." Briefly suggests reasons for conducting a bioassay, then lists potential steps for its actual conduction, stating to "collect representative soil samples; select the bioassay species; seed and grow for about three weeks; and evaluate plant growth." Presents a table that lists herbicides with their recommended test species and expected symptoms. |
