Testing of microbial isolate sensitivity in sterile soil after herbicide treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Herbicides are commonly used in integrated weed management programs. Their application not only controls weed populations, it also affects microbial populations in soil, such as actinomycetes and azotobacters. This study examined the effects of three herbicides (nicosulfuron, metribuzin and glyphosate) on a tolerant actinomycete isolate (14/3) and a ...
