Bioassay procedures, based on the root growth of maize (Zea mays L.), sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.), lentil (Lens esculenta M.) and sugar-beet (Beta vulgaris L.) were used to study the phytotoxicity and persistence of the herbicides chlorsulfuron, tribenuron-methyl, triasulfuron, and metsulfuron-methyl as affected by concentration and soil type. All bioassays indicated that phytotoxicity of all herbicides was not affected by soil texture but was increased with increasing herbicide concentration and soil pH. Chlorsulfuron and metsulfuron-methyl showed the highest phytotoxicity, and tribenuron-methyl the lowest; triasulfuron indicated intermediate phytoxicity. Sugar-beet was found to be the most sensitive crop to all four herbicides, while maize and sunflower were the least; lentil showed intermediate sensitivity. The relationship between phytotoxicity and herbicide concentration was best described by a quadratic equation. Concerning field persistence, the results indicated that persistence and leaching of all herbicides in all soils increased with increasing rate of application, except for tribenuron-methyl in the sandy clay loam soil where they were very low. Sunflower, lentil and sugar-beet sown 8 months after herbicide application in the sandy loam soil were not affected by tribenuron-methyl, but were injured by all the other herbicide treatments. These three crops and sunflower sown at the same time in the sandy clay loam and silty clay loam soils, respectively, were not affected by any treatment while lentil and sugar-beet were injured by chlorsulfuron in the silty clay loam soil only.
