The article reports on a study involving single species algal toxicity tests with Rodeo® and Garlon® 3A on Ankistrodesmus by researchers from Seattle, Washington. As a response to the expansion of invasive exotic plants distribution, the use of herbicides to control these species has also increased. In Washington State, herbicides are frequently used to control aggressive exotic wetland vegetation. Monsanto Agricultural Co.'s Rodeo, a formulation of glyphosate, is being used extensively for the control of purple loosestrife while DowElanco LLC's Garlon 3A, a formulation of triclopyr, is being used experimentally. The objective of the present study was to compare the toxicity of the Rodeo and Garlon 3A using single species toxicity tests. |
