Abstract
Metabolism of acetochlor /2-chloro-N-/2-ethyl-6-methyl-phenyl/-N-/ethoxymethyl/acetamide/ herbicide was traced in tolerant corn /Zea mays L./ and sensitive wheat /Triticum aestivum L./. Both resistant and susceptible plant species were found to have the ability to metabolize acetochlor absorbed. However, a faster metabolism of the herbicide was observed in the tolerant plants.
