The phytotoxicity of atrazine and three phenolic compounds (i.e., benzoic, p- coumaric and caffeic acids) was investigated. The germination of six test species was reduced by atrazine in the order: pearl-millet wheat turnip carrot corn mustard. Whereas, the phenolic compounds affected the germination of pearl-millet in the order: caffeic acid benzoic acid p-coumaric acid. Atrazine in conjunction with the three phenolic compounds exhibited synergistic effect on the process of germination and seedling growth.
