Abstract
Summary: Application of N‐(phosphonomethyl) glycine or GLY'PHO‐SATE to couch grass Pancum repens (L) Beauv. resulted in an intitial increase of the total amino acid content in the plant. which reached a maximum on the 8th day following treatment This was most marked in the rhizomes where the value was about three times that of the control plants. The initial increase fell off rapidly with time and on the 15th day after application the total amino acid content of the treated leaf and rhizome samples was less than the controls Resurgence of rhizome activity was noticeable on about the 48th day (viz. 7 weeks after t he Ist application).This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
