Sažetak
The use of herbicides is а traditional method for weed control in crop-producing systems. Along with the high effective weed control, herbicides might cause phytotoxicity for crop plants, due to insufficient herbicide selectivity, combining herbicide treatment with unsuitable meteorological conditions, long-term persistence of herbicide in the soil or off-target transfer of the herbicide – drift. Imazamox is a selective herbicide of imidazolinone group, used to control annual and perennial weeds in imidazolinone-resistant (IMI-R) crops. Protein hydrolysates (PHs) are a group of plant biostimulants containing small peptides and free amino acids, reported to ameliorate plant abiotic stress tolerance, including herbicide phytotoxicity. This report evaluates the damaging effect of simulated imazamox drift on growth, photosynthetic performance and productivity of maize plants as well as the efficiency of foliar application by protein hydrolysates as therapy means. The received results demonstrated that the simulated imazamox herbicide drift has a strong inhibiting effect on maize plants. This is well illustrated by the retarded growth of maize plants, their disrupted photosynthetic activity and productivity losses. The foliar supply of PHs to imazamox damaged maize plants ameliorates their photosynthetic performance, growth and crop productivity.
