Popis: Seedlings of winged elm (Ulmus dataMichx.), bur oak (Quercus macrocarpaMichx.), black walnut (Juglans nigraL.), eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginianaL.), and loblolly pine (Pinus taedaL.) were treated in nutrient solution with ring-labeled14C-tebuthiuron {N-[5-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]-N,N′-dimethylurea} or14C-hexazinone [3-cyclohexyl-6-(dimethylamino)-1-methyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione]. Four hours later,14C was detected in all sections of winged elm treated with14C-tebuthiuron and14C-hexazinone. Root absorption of the tebuthiuron label by the other species occurred in the order: loblolly pine > bur oak > black walnut = eastern redcedar. The sequence of14C-hexazinone absorption was: loblolly pine > black walnut ≥ bur oak = eastern redcedar. Foliar accumulation of the tebuthiuron label occurred in the order: bur oak > loblolly pine > eastern redcedar = black walnut, whereas the sequence with hexazinone was loblolly pine > bur oak > black walnut = eastern redcedar. The presence of the three metabolites of hexazinone in loblolly pine suggests that it may be resistant to hexazinone as a result of its ability to degrade hexazinone rather than its ability to limit uptake.
