Abstract
A rapid bioassay developed for testing photosynthesis-inhibiting herbicides was adapted for use with pine cotyledon tissue. Several herbicides having different modes of action were tested using loblolly pine (Pinustaeda L.) cotyledons. In addition to being a promising bioassay method for determining pine tolerance of photosynthesis inhibitors, differences in pine species' tolerance to hexazinone could be detected. This method could be useful as a preliminary test for screening herbicides for use in pine nurseries.
