Wpływ glifosatu stosowanego przed zbiorem na kiełkowanie ziarna i wschody samosiewów pszenicy ozimej

The aim of performed research was to determine the effect of pre-harvest application of glyphosate on the germination and emergence of winter wheat grain stored for two years, considering limiting the risk of the occurrence of self-sown plants. It was found that glyphosate had an unfavourable effect on the germination energy of grain and growth of radicles, and the effect persisted during the period of grain storage. After 24 months also its germinability decreased. Winter wheat emergence and seedling growth were limited by the plantation desiccation using 2 kg of glyphosate per ha.
