Summary: The new herbicide 3‐cyclohexyl‐6‐(diméthylamino)‐1‐methyl‐1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4 (1H,3H)‐dione (DPX 3674), effective in controlling various terrestrial plants, was found in glasshouse trials to control Myriophyllum verticillatum, Potamogeton pectinatus and Vaucheria dichotoma at 1.0 ppm and Rhizoclonium hieroglyphicum and Cladophora glomerata at 0.5 ppm. A rapid reduction of the dissolved oxygen content of the water occurred during the first few days of treatment.
