Abstract
Dicamba is one of the most widely used auxin herbicides to control unwanted weeds in field crops. However, dicamba often drifts to the nearby crop fields and cause remarkable yield loss to soybean by deforming different plant parts and especially leaves. In this study, we aimed to improve our understanding of dicamba damage to soybean plants. To test this, naturally dicamba tolerant and sensitive soybean lines were treated with ten different dicamba rates. Damage on the plants was observed both by visual scoring and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Tolerant soybean lines showed less physical damage than sensitive lines leading us to research the genetic background of the recovery mechanism.
