Abstract

Analysis of entire barley (Hordeum vulgare ‘Moravian’) seedlings exposed to triallate [S-(2,3,3-trichloroallyl)-diisopropylthiocarbamate] vapor for 5 days after a 5-day germination period resulted in a linear rate of accumulation of triallate, while wild oat (Avena fatua L.) seedlings accumulated triallate for 1/2 to 2 days after exposure with no net accumulation thereafter. Similar accumulation patterns were shown for a similar exposure period when barley and wild oat were seeded 1.3 cm below a triallate-treated soil layer in the greenhouse. More triallate accumulated in wild oat and barley when they were planted in a triallate-treated soil layer than below. Since barley accumulated greater amounts of triallate without injury than wild oat, differential uptake of triallate was not the reason for selectivity.
