Abstract/Contents: | "Tissue abnormalities in colonial bentgrass (Agrostis tenuis Sibth.) were observed after foliage applications at normal doses of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 2-(2, 4, 5-trichlorophenoxy)propionic acid (silvex), or 4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-butyric acid [4-(2,4-DB)]. They included proliferations of the pericycle, hypertrophic cortical cells, and massed lateral root and root hair formations. The abnormalities usually resulting from phenoxy rates of 1, 1-1/2, or 3 pounds active per acre were often followed by death of the bentgrass within 20 days after treatment." |
