This study was carried out to investigate the residual level of 5-methyl-1,2,4-triazolo[3,4-b][1.3] benzothiazole (tricyclazole) and the amount of transfer to Korean cabbage grown in treated soil with tricyclazole. The field trial on Korean cabbage was done at two different green houses located in Gwangju (Field 1) and Yongin (Field 2). Soil and cabbage samples were collected at different days after soil treatment of tricyclazole with two different concentration levels, respectively. Average

The initial concentrations of tricyclazole in field 1 soil were 4.25 and 8.97 mg/kg and decreased to 2.48 and 4.26 mg/kg at 43 DAT (day after treatment) and 0.88 and 2.02 mg/ kg and decreased to 0.43 and 0.98 mg/kg at 36 DAT in field 2, respectively. The half-life of tricyclazole was about 39.6 and 28.1 days for the low and high concentration of tricyclazole treated soils in field 1 and 27.9 and 17.2 days for the low and high concentration of tricyclazole treated soils in field 2, respectively. Residual levels of tricyclazole in Korean cabbage were ranged from 4.03 to 18.26 and from 8.26 to 35.08% of initial concentration in filed 1 and field 2 soils, respectively.
