Abstract
The germination and growth responses of
eupatorium odoratum to herbicides applied at various levels of soil depth is demonstrated . germination of E. odoratum seeds was completely inhibited by EPTC or molinate when applied to the soil surface ; atrazine , diuron , monuron and simazine did not inhibit germination but the seedlings when emerged died . within three weeks . all herbicides applied to various levels of soil depth caused a significant reduction in the growth of seedlings. Greatest effects were observed for herbicides applied to the soil surface . the most effective herbicides in the control of germination and subsequent
growth of E. odoratum were Atrazine , 2,4- D , diuron , EPTC , molinate , monuron and
