Managing growth and competition of a perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) living mulch in a vegetable cropping system

Creator:

Wiles, Lori Jeannine

Abstract:

Vegetable production with a living mulch may reduce soil erosion and compaction, increase organic matter levels, and decrease the requirement for chemical inputs. Competition between the vegetable and mulch, however, has limited the development of successful living mulch systems to realize these benefits. In a field study, interference between pak...

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...
