Effect of microorganisms on the phytotoxicity of herbicides. VI. Modification of venzar activity by bacterial cultures.
Interactions between two bacterial strains and venzar were compared. It was found that the mechanism of interactions is various and causes the modification of herbicide phytotoxicity. Metabolites of Bacillus subtilis 72 interfered with herbicide by affecting physiological processes in plant tissues and enhancing its inhibitory influence. Arthrobacter sp. 18 strain decreased the phytoinhibitory effect of herbicide due to conjugation with the carrier from venzar.
