The agronomic, environmental, and economic implications of the introduction of terbacil for weed control in Oregon commercial peppermint operations

Creator:: Harris, James O.
Abstract:: The use of terbacil for weed control was adapted by a high percentage of Oregon peppermint growers soon after its introduction in 1967. To help clarify some of the implications of terbacil usage, three studies were undertaken to collect information concerning (a) the movement and build-up of terbacil in various...

Asulam in western Oregon pastures : broadleaf dock control and tolerance of important grass and legume species

Creator:: Majek, Bradley A.
Abstract:: In previous research in Europe, asulam (methyl sulfanilylcarbamate) was found to be a potentially useful herbicide for controlling broadleaf dock Rumex obtusifolius L. ) in permanent pastures. Asulam was also reported to have a low margin of safety when used on common pasture species. Field studies were conducted in western...

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...

Effect of a pre-irrigation period on the activity of ethofumesate applied to dry soil

Creator:: McAuliffe, David
Abstract:: Applications of ethofumesate in Oregon have been observed from previous research and from commercial use to be less effective when applied to dry soils, even if subsequent precipitation occurred within a few days. Two field studies were established in the summer of 1979 using sweet corn (Zea mays L. 'Jubilee')...

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....

The effect of 2,4-D on the respiration rate and ethylene production of Bartlett pears and Red Delicious apples

Creator:: Fechtig, Allen David
Abstract:: After nearly 20 years of commercial use in orchards without apparent tree injury in Oregon and Washington, 2,4-D [(2,4-dichlorophenoxy) acetic acid] was reported in 1970 to cause injury to apple and pear trees in Washington. In the early 1970's, there was widespread concern among growers, researchers, and processors in the...

Factors affecting selective control of wild oat and downy brome in wheat by trifluralin

Creator:: Aldridge, Jack Clifton
Abstract:: Trifluralin (a, a, a - trifluoro -2, 6 -dinitro-N, N-dipropyl-ptoluidine) is effective in controlling downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.) and wild oat (Avena fatua L.) but does not severely affect the growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Studies were conducted using germination chamber and greenhouse facilities to investigate possible factors...

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)...

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...

Influence of soil moisture on movement of terbacil in soil

Creator:: Vesecky, John Francis
Abstract:: Previous field research with terbacil (3-tert-butyl-5-chloro- 6-methyluracil) has shown that early fall applications to dry soil performed better than did late fall or early winter applications to wet soil. Field and greenhouse studies were conducted to determine the effect of soil moisture content at time of application and the effect...
