  • Factors affecting selective weedy rye (Secale sp.) control in winter wheat with the herbicide ethiazin

    Creator:
    Diener, Phillip R.
    Abstract:
    Weedy rye (Secale spp.) is a weed in the winter-wheat- growing regions in the Pacific Northwest and surrounding regions. Ethiazin (4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3- (ehtylthio)-1,2,4-triazine-5 (4H)-one) has shown selective control of weedy rye in the cultivar 'Stephens', (Triticum aestivum). Field, greenhouse, and outdoor pot experiments were conducted to determine factors influencing selectivity. Field...

  • The influence of magnesium on the toxicity of atrazine

    Creator:
    Brenchley, Ronald Glenn
    Abstract:
    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...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Asulam for tansy ragwort control in alfalfa : field efficacy and selectivity factors

    Creator:
    Harper, Delbert Ray
    Abstract:
    Tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea L. ) is a poisonous weed which infests alfalfa fields in western Oregon. Studies were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of asulam (methyl sulfanilylcarbamate)for control of tansy ragwort in alfalfa and to elucidate factors responsible for its selectivity. In seven replicated field trials in 1973 and...

  • 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 soil persistence and crop selectivity of 3, 6-dichloropicolinic acid

    Creator:
    Olson, David Lloyd
    Abstract:
    Field studies were conducted in 1973 and 1974 to determine the soil persistence of the herbicide M-3785 (containing 0.5 lb a.e. Dowco 290 + 2.0 lb a.e. 214D/gallon). under cropping situations. Spring barley (Hordeum distichon L. 'Hannchen') was grown at Corvallis, Oregon and winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. 'Nugaines.') was...

  • Foliar vs. root uptake of the herbicide Hoe 23408 in Italian ryegrass and wild oats

    Creator:
    West, Geralyn Marie
    Abstract:
    HOE 23408 [methyl 2-[ 4-( 2, 4- dichlorophenoxy )phenoxy]propanoate] is a herbicide used to selectively-control Italian ryegrass (Lolium muitiflorum Lam.) and wild oats (Avena fatua L.) in wheat. The objective of this research was to compare the relative importance of foliar and root uptake of the herbicide in these two...

  • 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....

    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...
