Agricultural Research Service [ARS] scientists have found a new bioherbicide that shows promise as an alternative to methyl bromide for controlling weeds in tomatoes. The bioherbicide, Myrothecium verrucaria, comes from the sicklepod plant found primarily in the southeastern United States. ARS scientists recently reported that the fungus control kudzu, a problematic weed in the South. Common purslane, horse purslane, ground spurge, and spotted spurge are serious weed pests in commercially grown tomatoes. 2, record 12, English, - bioherbicide

In thermal conductivity analysers, a Wheatstone Bridge Circuit measures the imbalance caused by passing gas over detector filaments, using half of the cells for the fumigant air mixture and the other half for air as a control. This analyser, in a portable form, is commonly used to check for methyl bromide in ship holds, but it can also be calibrated for other gases. It will not differentiate between fumigants if mixtures are used. 1, record 13, English, - thermal%20conductivity%20analyser

Halide detectors are propane burners with a copper grid or ring in the flame. Air is drawn into the flame through a hose that can be directed to various areas under fumigation. If halide vapour, such as carbon tetrachloride or methyl bromide, contacts the hot copper ring, it reacts to form a blue-coloured copper halide. The intensity of this blue colour indicates the amount of gas present. This is a fairly sensitive method that registers the presence of a halide gas but does not indicate phosphine gas. 1, record 14, English, - halide%20detector

Ce genre d'instrument est un brûleur au propane muni d'une électrode de cuivre en forme de grille ou d'anneau. L'air ambiant est aspiré vers la flamme à l'aide d'un tuyau que l'on peut diriger dans diverses parties du bâtiment ou de la cellule. Si l'air contient des vapeurs d'halogénures, comme du tétrachlorure de carbone et du bromure de méthyle, et que ces dernières entrent en contact avec l'extrémité chaude de l'électrode, il se forme un halogénure cuprique qui exhibe les raies blues du spectre. L'intensité des raies bleues du spectre est proportionnelle à la concentration des vapeurs d'halogénures. Ce genre d'instrument sert essentiellement à mesurer avec précision les concentrations de gaz d'halogénures dans l'air, mais il n'est d'aucune utilité pour détecter la phosphine. 1, record 14, French, - halog%C3%A9nom%C3%A8tre
