Abstract
The uptake and translocation of14C labelled acetochlor and EPTC herbicides were followed in experiments with maize /Zea mays L./ and mustard /Sinapis alba L./ in nutrient solutions. Radioactivity data were comparatively evaluated for approaching the origin of the different phytotoxicity of these herbicides to the plants used. Results obtained are in good agreement with the extent and symptoms of herbicide injury on maize and mustard plants grown in acetochlor or EPTC treated sand.
