Ancylobacter sp. XJ-412-1, capable of degrading metsulfuron-methyl, was isolated from sulfonylurea-contaminated soil. When metsulfuron-methyl was provided as the sole carbon source, more than 90.5% of metsulfuron-methyl at concentration of 50 mg l(-1) was degraded by strain XJ-412-1 after incubation at

Laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate adsorption, desorption and mobility of metsulfuron-methyl in soils of the oil palm agroecosystem consisting of the Bernam, Selangor, Rengam and Bongor soil series. The lowest adsorption of metsulfuron-methyl occurred in the Bongor soil (0.366

Tribenuron methyl (TBM) is a member of the sulfonylurea herbicide family and is widely used worldwide. In this study, TBM-degrading bacteria were enriched with TBM as potential carbon, nitrogen or sulfur source, and 44 bacterial isolates were obtained. These isolates
We tested the effects of the herbicide metsulfuron-methyl on growth of the submerged macrophyte Myriophyllum spicatum under laboratory conditions using different exposure scenarios. The exposures of each scenario were comparable in the concentration × time factor, viz., the same 21-d

The behavior of metsulfuron-methyl and its residues in an artificial pond was studied using a (14)C isotopic tracer technique. Throughout the experimental period, the majority of metsulfuron-methyl residues were sustained in the pond water. Furthermore, the metsulfuron-methyl residues were just
