Studies on the distribution of 2,4 D herbicide in soil-plant ecosystem using isotope tracer techniques

In this study, distribution of 2,4 Diclorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4 D) herbicide in soil-plant ecosystems under greenhouse conditions were investigated by using isotope tracer techniques. For this purpose barley, wheat and oat plants were grown in two different kinds of soil taken from surrounding of Ankara and the distribution of the herbicide between soil and plants were investigated. In the research 14C-2,40 D was used and the radioactivity was measured in a liquid scintillation counter. (author)
