  • Sethoxydim herbicide in red fescue and bentgrass : levels and mechanisms of selectivity

    Creator:
    Butler, J. Hugh B.
    Abstract:
    The herbicide rate required to reduce growth by 50% (GR₅₀) of 11 cultivars of red fesue (Festuca rubra L. and F. rubra ssp. commutata) and for four cultivars of bentgrass (Agrostis tenuis Sibth. and A. stolonifera L. var. palustris) to sethoxydim (2-[1-(ethoxyimino) butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one) was determined in greenhouse and laboratory experiments....

  • An evaluation of weed interference in rice grown on hydromorphic soils in West Africa

    Creator:
    Diop, Amadou Makhtar
    Abstract:
    Field, screenhouse, and laboratory experiments were conducted to study weed interference in rice grown on hydromorphic soils at the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) at Ibadan, Nigeria. Rice and weeds emerged at the same time, 1 week after planting. Weed dry weight was significantly reduced when the crop was...

  • Dinitroaniline-herbicide resistance in goosegrass (Eleusine indica) : ecophysiological aspects

    Creator:
    Valverde, Bernal E.
    Abstract:
    Growth of individual goosegrass (Eleusine indica (L) Gaertn.) plants of three dinitroaniline-herbicide resistant (R) and three susceptible (S) biotypes from North Carolina, South Carolina, and Mississippi was analyzed in greenhouse experiments. Leaf area and biomass measurements, including root, shoot, above-ground, and total dry weights were similar among the biotypes studied....

  • Factors affecting selective weedy rye (Secale sp.) control in winter wheat with the herbicide ethiazin

    Creator:
    Diener, Phillip R.
    Abstract:
    Weedy rye (Secale spp.) is a weed in the winter-wheat- growing regions in the Pacific Northwest and surrounding regions. Ethiazin (4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3- (ehtylthio)-1,2,4-triazine-5 (4H)-one) has shown selective control of weedy rye in the cultivar 'Stephens', (Triticum aestivum). Field, greenhouse, and outdoor pot experiments were conducted to determine factors influencing selectivity. Field...

  • Cyperus esculentus control with glyphosate : time of application and addition of ammonium sulfate

    Creator:
    Costa, Jaime
    Abstract:
    Cyperus esculentus L. var. esculentus is a serious weed problem in northwest Spain. Long-term control from glyphosate and other herbicides has been inconsistent. Field, greenhouse, and laboratory studies were conducted on factors influencing the activity of glyphosate on C. esculentus. In field studies, glyphosate controlled foliage growth at most growth...

  • Interference of annual weeds in seedling alfalfa

    Creator:
    Fischer, Albert J.
    Abstract:
    The interference of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus),downy brome (Bromus tectorum),and tumble mustard (Sisymbrium altissimum) with alfalfa was studied. Alfalfa was seeded with each of the four weeds on August 14 and September 15, 1981, and on April 13, 1982. Alfalfa also was seeded on August 27, 1981, with...

  • Degradation of the herbicide EPTC in three Willamette Valley soils

    Creator:
    Coleman, Quentin Charles
    Abstract:
    EPIC (S-ethyl dipropylthiocarbamate) is a selective herbicide which controls some annual grasses, annual broadleaves, and perennial grasses when incorporated into the soil before planting. In the last few years, reports have been received of certain fields in the Willamette Valley of Oregon in which EPIC was no longer effective. Preliminary...

  • Non-herbicidal effects of dinoseb on winter wheat yields

    Creator:
    Valverde, Bernal E.
    Abstract:
    A series of experiments were conducted from 1983 to 1985 to determine the effects of dinoseb [2-(1-methylpropyl)-4,6-dinitrophenol] on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) yields. Field trials on dinoseb timing and dinoseb plus supplemental pesticides were established in an effort to elucidate the possible factors involved in the yield...

  • The effect of soil factors on glyphosate availability in soil

    Creator:
    Kawate, Michael Ken
    Abstract:
    Glyphosate (N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine) is an effective foliar-applied herbicide with broad-spectrum activity. Greenhouse and laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the importance of soil moisture, autoclaved soil, soil type, sphagnum peat, soil pH, added phosphorus, and plant residues on crop establishment and growth when glyphosate was applied before emergence of the crop....
