Abstract:The effect of 8 methylated vegetable oil adjuvants including methylated rapeseed oil adjuvant, methylated cottonseed oil adjuvant, methylated peanut oil adjuvant, methylated maize oil adjuvant, methylated soybean oil adjuvant, methylated sunflower oil adjuvant, methylated flaxseed oil adjuvant and methylated castor oil adjuvant on 4 herbicides in common usage for controlling barnyardgrass and redroot pigweed was measured by pot method in greenhouse. The 4 herbicides used were sulcotrione, atrazine, nicosulfuron and quizalofop-p-ethyl. The results showed that all the 8 methylated vegetable oil adjuvants had some enhancement effect on the 4 herbicides. The enhancement effect of these adjuvants on sulcotrione and atrazine were better than that on nicosulfuron and quizalofop-p-ethyl, and the former was from 30% to 70% and the latter was less than 20%. Comparatively speaking, the enhancement effect of methylated rapeseed oil adjuvant, methylated cottonseed oil adjuvant and methylated peanut oil adjuvant were better than the other 5 methylated vegetable oil adjuvants and the enhancement effect of methylated flaxseed oil adjuvant and methylated castor oil adjuvant were worse than the others.
