Summary. Seeds of three tobacco Nicotiana tabacum L.) varieties were soaked in water for 0, 1, 3 or 5 days and treated, after sowing in glasshouse flats, with NN-dimethyl-αα-diphenylacetamide (diphenamid) at 4·5 kg/ha 1, 3 or 5 days after sowing or at the cotyledonary stage. Unsprayed series were included as controls. Diphenamid caused thinning of seedlings in all varieties, but one (Maryland Catterton) showed some tolerance. All varieties showed stunting and malformations from diphenamid, particularly when seeds soaked for 5 days were treated either 1 or 5 days after sowing.
