Abstract

Herbicidal activity of glyphosate on Sida acuta Burm f. was studied. For this purpose the plants were sprayed with aqueous solution of glyphosate at the concentration from 100 to 2000 ppm. At all concentrations glyphosate showed epinastically curvature, swollen and bending of stem. The leaves turned yellowish and roots became swollen and got decayed. Vegetative growth of plants was retarded and subsequently the plants dried.
