Translocation of Herbicides in Detached Bean Leaves
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Labeled 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2, 4, 5-T), 2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid (dicamba), 4-amino-3, 5, 6-trichloropicolinic acid (picloram), 1,2-dihydropyridazine-3,6-dione (MH), assimilates, and phosphoric acid were absorbed and transported basipetally from the lamina into the petioles of detached bean leaves (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Upward transport in the lamina was slight, except when the petioles were in water. In contrast, labeled 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea (diuron) was not transported basipetally, but some acropetal transport did occur. Vein-loading and transport of labeled assimilates, 2,4-D, dicamba, MH, and phosphate were greatly reduced by a prior treatment with 7-oxabicyclo(2.2.1)heptane-2,3-dicarboxylic acid (endothall). Detached leaves hold promise for use in absorption and transport studies.
