In previous research, bromacil gave good performance when
it was applied in early fall with fairly dry soil conditions and before
the fall germinating weeds had started growth. On the other hand,
if bromacil was applied in late November, December, or January
on nearly saturated soil with weeds that had...
Several studies were conducted to determine the effect of weed
density on herbicide efficacy. Diuron [3-(3, 4- dichlorophenyl) -1, 1-
dimethylurea] was tested on various densities of Italian ryegrass
(Lolium multiflorum Lam. ) under greenhouse and field conditions.
Cycloate (S-ethyl N-ethylthiocyclohexanecarbamate) was tested on
green foxtail (Setaria viridis (L. )...
Greenhouse and growth chamber experiments were conducted with
the following objectives: (a) to study the effects of N-1-naphthylphthalamic
acid (naptalam) on shoot and tuber production, rhizome transformation,
and growth of yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus L.) plants;
(b) to study the effects of N-phosphonomethyl glycine (glyphosate) on
nutsedge plants at different...
Atrazine is an asymmetrical s-triazine herbicide used pre-
and post emergence for weed control in many crops. Triazine herbicides
have been used in the Pacific-Northwest for weed control in
orchard crops. Under certain conditions where trees were grown
in nutrient deficient areas, it was noted that toxic symptoms due to...
Studies were conducted to determine the nature of the interaction
between atrazine (2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-isopropylaminos-
triazine) and magnesium on tomatoes. This interaction was
studied under two light regimes: continuous light and a 12-hour
photoperiod. Tomato plants were grown in sand cultures at three
levels of magnesium fertilization. Four weeks after planting,
atrazine...
