The effect of simazine on nitrification and the decomposition of simazine by soil microorganisms
The herbicide simazine (2-chloro-4,6-bis(ethylamino)- 1,3,5-triazine) was found to have an inhibitory effect on nitrification in pure and mixed cultures of the nitrifying bacteria. Simazine concentrations of 6 and 9ppm inhibited the rate of nitrification in soil perfusion units, and an abnormally hi...
