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...

The response to glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine] of two
dodder species Cuscuta campestris Yuncker (field dodder) and Cuscuta
indecora Chiosy (largeseed dodder) parasitizing alfalfa (Medicago
sativa L.) was compared. In the absence of glyphosate, alfalfa was
killed or severely injured by parasitism from uncontrolled dodder.
Results of field experiments in which...
Norflurazon [4-chloro-5-(methylamino)-2(3-(trifluoromethyl)
phenyl)- 3(2H)- pyridazinone] and prodiamine (N3, N3-di-n-propy1-2,4-
dinitro-6-(trifluoromethyl)-m-phenylenediamine) are two herbicides
being considered for weed control in alfalfa. Rotational crops
following alfalfa may be sensitive to residues of these herbicides.
Studies were conducted in Oregon and Washington to examine the soil
persistence and activity of these herbicides on...
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...
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...
