Abstract

In greenhouse and growth-chamber studies, increasing the level of either light or temperature increased bentazon [3-isopropyl-1H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-4(3H)-one 2,2-dioxide] phytotoxicity to cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Light had a greater influence on phytotoxicity than did temperature. Light and temperature conditions after bentazon application had a greater influence on phytotoxicity than did light and temperature conditions before application. Maximum phytotoxicity was obtained from treatment with low light level before application and high light level after application.
