Abstract

In a closed system the vapors from the potassium salt of 4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid caused severe damage and death of Pinto beans. Vapors from the potassium salt of 4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid caused more injury to Pinto beans than vapors from the same application rates of the propylene glycol butyl ether esters of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or the dimethylamine salt of 2-methoxy-3,6-dichlorobenzoic acid.
