摘要

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION The aquatic herbicides 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and diquat (6,7-dihydrodipyrido[1,2-a : 20,10-c]pyrazinediium ion) are commonly used to control the invasive floating plants water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes [Mart.] Solms) and water lettuce (Pistia stratiotes L.). Despite the high level of efficacy and rapid injury markers from these foliarapplied herbicides, nontarget injury is common when these herbicides are applied to mixed populations of target an.
