The topramezone dose was 6.3 g a.i. ha−1; control means treated with tap water; Alone means that topramezone was applied alone; Org means that topramezone was applied with a tank-mix of organosilicone; MSO means topramezone was applied with a tank-mix of MSO. The means in the same column followed by a common letter are not significantly different at p = 0.05 (vertical comparison). The means in the same row followed by a capital common letter are not significantly different at p = 0.05 (horizontal comparison).
