Abstract

The herbicides, 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (AT) and pure and commercial dinoseb-acetate were tested in the laboratory and on a semi-field scale in a bean plant-spider mite system (Phaseolus vulgaris L. and Tetranychus urticae Koch) using concentrations at and below the recommended rate. Changes in the composition of the spider-mite populations, the number per leaf unit, and the histology of mite organs were determined following foliar and soil applications.
