Abstract

Simultaneous treatment with certain carbamate insecticides inhibited degradation of 3-(p-chlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethyrurea (monuron) in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) leaf discs. Monuron degradation was strongly inhibited by 1-naphthyl methylcarbamate (carbaryl) and 4-benzothiophene-N-methylcarbamate, but 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranyl methylcarbamate was ineffective. Effective carbamates did not prevent the metabolism of monuron to 1-(p-chlorophenyl)-3-methylurea (hereinafter referred to as monomethylmonuron), but they inhibited subsequent degradation of monomethylmonuron.
