title: The influence of alachlor, trifluralin, and diazinon on the development of endogenous mycorrhizae in soybeans.
abstract: Preplant incorporated treatments of 2 and 4 kg/ha of trifluralin and diazinon had no significant effect on growth, P accumulation or root colonization by mycorrhizal fungi in soybeans planted in an Andover clay loam. At 4 kg/ha, alachlor and trifluralin inhibited root development of 25 day-old plants. The 4 kg/ha alachlor treatment reduced shoot weight of 25 day old plants significantly and suppressed mycorrhizal development of 25 to 60 day old plants. At currently used commercial rates neither alachlor, trifluralin, nor diazinon affected mycorrhizal development under the conditions of the experiment.
