The results (damage of the plants) are shown also in Table 2 with the indices of 6 grades of herbicidal effect shown below: 
     Species of week plants: 
     (1) Echinochloa crus-galli, (2) Poa annua, (3) Cyperus iria, (4) Amaranthus lividus, (5) Chenopodium album, (6) Stellaria media, (7) Cardamine flexuosa and (8) Portulaca oleracea. 
     Species of crop plants: 
     (9) soy bean, (10) maize and (11) wheat.
