- the recovery in the application solution for the highest test concentration of 1000 mg/kg dry soil was found to be 104 % of the test item - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- - Fisher exact test (one-sided greater, α = 0.05) and multiple sequentially Fisher test after Bonferroni-Holm (one-sided greater, α = 0.05): emergence/mortality
- Student T-test (two-sided, α = 0.05)

- Spearman-Karber method, moving average method and probit analysis: Calculations of EC10, EC20 and EC50 for emergence (for wheat, bean, carrot, oilseed rape and tomato) and LC10, LC20 and LC50 for mortality of emerged plants (oilseed rape only)
- Probit analysis slope/intercept: 2.94320/-6.32190 (carrot), 3.91598/-10.02242 (oilseed rape emergence), 11.03985/-10.72876 (oilseed rape mortality), 2.60264/-4.31949 (tomato)
- symptoms of toxicity were not statistically evaluated since these effects (i.e. reduced growth) were covered by the statistical analysis of growth
- non-linear regression (3-parametric normal cumulative distribution function with Downhill-Simplex method optimization and 500 optimization cycles using treatment means as values and 500 resamplings for estimating confidence limits): Calculations of EC10, EC20 and EC50 for growth (shoot length and shoot fresh weight, all species)
- In order to increase the statistical power, the calculations of wheat growth were performed excluding the treatment of 1000 mg/kg dry soil
- Statistical analysis was performed using ToxRat Professional, Version 3.3.0 - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- In a valid, reliable and conclusive study following the OECD 208, the effects of the test item Tolyltriazole on seedling emergence and early growth of emerged plants were tested. For the overall NOEC-values Tomato turned out to be the most susceptible species for emergence, oilseed rape for mortality, for shoot length and fresh weight it was onion (the overall EC20 value was based on tomato as the most susceptible species).
- Executive summary:
The overall NOEC for emergence was based on results of tomato as the most susceptible species and was 10 mg/kg dry soil. The corresponding EC20 value was 21.7 mg/kg dry soil (95 % confidence interval: 12.1-31.1 mg/kg dry soil).
The overall NOEC for mortality of the emerged plants was based on results of oilseed rape as the most susceptible species and was 100 mg/kg dry soil. The corresponding LC20 value was 221 mg/kg dry soil (95 % confidence interval: 134-293 mg/kg dry soil).
The overall NOEC for shoot length was based on results of onion as the most susceptible species and was < 1.0 mg/kg dry soil. The corresponding EC20 value was 6.25 mg/kg dry soil (95 % confidence interval: 5.92-7.37 mg/kg dry soil) based on solvent control and 1.60 mg/kg dry soil (95 % confidence interval: 1.17-2.02 mg/kg dry soil) based on pooled control.
The overall NOEC for fresh weight was based on results of onion as the most susceptible species and was < 1.0 mg/kg dry soil. The overall EC20 value was based on tomato as the most susceptible species and was 2.02 mg/kg dry soil (95 % confidence interval: 1.73-2.37 mg/kg dry soil).

Description of key information
The toxicity to plants was investigated in a long-term study exposing five different species with Tolyltriazole. The most sensitive long-term endpoint was the shoot length in onions (EC10, 21 d: 0.45 mg/kg dw). For the growth of tomatos (shoot length) the most sensitive acute endpoint was found (EC50, 21d: 9.17 mg/kg dw).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Short-term EC50 or LC50 for terrestrial plants:
- 9.17 mg/kg soil dw
- Long-term EC10, LC10 or NOEC for terrestrial plants:
- 0.45 mg/kg soil dw
