  • Factors influencing barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli) control with diclofop

    Creator:
    West, Lynn Douglas
    Abstract:
    Diclofop (2- [4 -(2, 4-dichlorophenoxy)phenoxy] propanoic acid), formulated as the methyl ester, selectively kills barnyardgrass [Echinochloa crus -galli (L.) Beauv.] in several crops when applied postemergence. Studies were conducted to determine the effect of soil moisture, barnyardgrass age, and site of exposure on control of barnyardgrass with diclofop. Soil moisture...

  • Selective control of volunteer wheat (Triticum aestivum (L.) em. Thell.) in new seedlings of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) with fluazifop-butyl and sethoxydim

    Creator:
    Ott, Pablo
    Abstract:
    Volunteer winter wheat (Triticum aestivum 'Daws') severely suppressed growth of fall-planted alfalfa (Medicago sativa (L.) 'Vernal') seedlings. Wheat competition began soon after alfalfa emerged and continued until the first forage harvest the following May. Alfalfa yield at the first cutting was reduced by 1% for each day volunteer wheat was...

  • 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...

  • The response of tomatoes to atrazine as affected by magnesium and photoperiod

    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...

  • Factors influencing metribuzin use in strip-planted wheat

    Creator:
    Zeghida, Ali
    Abstract:
    Equipment for strip-till planting is under development in wheat-fallow rotations in the Columbia Basin of Oregon. This involves the absence of tillage during the fallow season. At planting time, the strip-till planter creates a narrow band into which the wheat seed is placed. The area between the rows is undisturbed...

  • 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...

  • 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...

    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...
