Biology and control of tuber oatgrass (Arrhenatherum elatius (L.) presl. var. Bulbosum (willd.) spenn.)

Creator:: Tanphiphat, Karin
Abstract:: Tuber oatgrass (Arrhenatherum elatius (L.) Presl. var. bulbosum (Willd.) Spenn.) is a perennial grass that often becomes a weed problem in Western Oregon. Control efforts using glyphosate often give unsatisfactory results. The effects of several factors on development of tuber oatgrass were investigated. Long days and cool temperatures (16/8h, 20/10C...

Effects of lactofen herbicide on cellular uptake of glyphosate herbicide in malva parviflora L.

Creator:: Wells, Barbara Heard
Abstract:: Time-course growth chamber studies were conducted on little mallow (Malva parviflora L.) to determine whether sublethal doses of lactofen (1'-(carboethoxy)ethyl-5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl) phenoxy]-2- nitrobenzoate) would enhance uptake of glyphosate (N'-(phosphonomethyl) glycine) by altering membrane permeability. Lactofen-induced membrane peroxidation was determined by harvesting leaf discs, measuring stress ethylene evolution, and recording increases in...

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....

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...

Behavior of metribuzin and ethylmetribuzin in soil

Creator:: Peek, Daniel C.
Abstract:: The behavior of metribuzin [4-amino-6-(1,1- dimethylethyl)-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one] and ethyl-metribuzin (4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3- (ethylthio)-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one] in soil was studied to determine if differences in herbicide behavior in soil could explain (a) the inconsistent herbicidal activity of these chemicals and (b) the greater activity of metribuzin, as compared to ethyl-metribuzin. Metribuzin had higher activity than ethyl-metribuzin...

Intra- and interspecific interference between sweet corn (Zea mays L.) and a living mulch of white clover (Trifolium repens L.)

Creator:: Fischer, Albert J.
Abstract:: Living mulches are vegetative covers that can grow in association with row crops and may prevent soil erosion and suppress weeds. Crop reduction from association with the living mulch is a frequent problem with this cultural practice. The interference between a white clover (Trifolium repens L. "New Zealand") living mulch...

Biology of Bromus rigidus : interference in winter wheat, seed longevity in the soil, and vernalization requirements for flowering

Creator:: Gleichsner, Jean Ann
Resource Type:: Dissertation

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....

Postemergence herbicides and take-all disease in winter wheat : alterations in the incidence and severity of disease and crop growth

Creator:: Geddens, Ray M.
Abstract:: Eight postemergence herbicides were evaluated to determine their influence on the incidence and severity of take-all disease caused by the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici in winter wheat. Mecoprop ((+)-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propanoic acid), difenzoquat (1,2- dimethyl- 3,5- diphenyl -1H- pyrazolium), dinoseb amine (amine salt of 2-(1-methylpropy1)-4,6-dinitrophenol), and diclofopmethyl (methyl ester of (+)-2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)...

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...
