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....

Creator:: Paller, Enrique C.
Abstract:: 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...

Creator:: Wiedman, Steven John
Abstract:: Studies were conducted to determine the extent and nature of sub-lethal effects of herbicides on plant growth. At least one herbicide from each major chemical class of herbicides was evaluated under greenhouse conditions. Oat plants were grown in sand culture to eliminate soil interferences. Herbicides were applied pre-emergence in nutrient...

Creator:: Thill, Donald Cecil, 1950-
Abstract:: The influence of certain environmental and edaphic factors on the germination and emergence of downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.) was investigated in the laboratory. A preliminary study was conducted to determine the osmotic stability of mannitol and polyethylene glycol 20,000 (PEG) solutions, which are commonly used to simulate water stress...

Creator:: Radosevich, Steven R.
Abstract:: Studies were initiated to determine the response of two common groundsel biotypes (Senecio vulgaris L. ) to several s-triazine herbicides. Herbicides tested were: 2-chloro-4,6-bis(ethylamino)-striazine (simazine), 2-chloro-4-(ethylamino)-6-(isopropylamino)- s-triazine (atrazine) 2-(sec-butylamino)-4-(ethylamino)-6-methoxys- triazine (GS-14254), 2, 4-bis(isopropylamino)-6-methoxy-striazine (prometone), 2-(tert-butylamino)-4-(ethylamino)-6-methylthio- s-triazine (terbutryn), and 2, 4-bis(isopropylamino)-6- methylthio-s-triazine (prometryne). One biotype was much more susceptible than the...

Creator:: Brenchley, Ronald Glenn
Abstract:: 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...
