Difference in Developmental Toxicity Among Structurally Similar N‐Phenylimide Herbicides in Rats and Rabbits

CONCLUSIONSThe difference in developmental toxicity in rats was striking among N‐phenylimide herbicides. The mechanism of action of developmental toxicity by S‐53482 should account for the compound‐specific difference as well as species difference between rats and rabbits.
