This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of four
methods of incorporating the herbicide trifluralin into the soil, and
to determine the interaction between depth of incorporation of trifluralin
and depth of weed seed germination.
Field experiments on green and dry peas were established in
Oregon and Idaho. Trifluralin,...
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...
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...
Crops were grown at the experimental farms using accepted cultural practices ( within the limits of experimentation) or trials were conducted on growers' fields. Most experiments were designed as randomized complete blocks with three to five replications. Herbicide treatments were applied uniformly with precision plot sprays. Unless otherwise indicated, preplant...
Three experiments whose objectives were to investigate cover
crop kill by winter freeze, weed suppression by 'Micah' barley and
other spring cereals, and allelopathic potential of cereal covers
were conducted at the Vegetable Research Farm and in the greenhouse
and growth chamber facilities at OSU in 1989/90. Kill by winter...
The primary purposes of these studies were to investigate: (1)
the effects of air temperature, soil moisture, and supplemental light
on sprouting ability of quackgrass (Agropyron repens L. (Beauv. ))
rhizome buds; (2) the influence of 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid
(Ethrel) on growth, morphology, and regenerative capacity of quackgrass
and field bindweed...
