Field studies were conducted in 2010 in Ontario, OR to evaluate the response of direct-seeded dry bulb onion, sugar beet, and pinto bean to imazosulfuron soil residues 12 months after application to control weeds in potato. The studies followed randomized complete block design with three replications each. Imazosulfuron was applied...
Yellow nutsedge is an important weed problem in the furrow irrigated fields in the Treasure Valley of eastern Oregon and southwestern Idaho. Field studies were conducted in 2008 and 2009 to evaluate the effect of PPI S-metolachlor or EPTC followed by POST halosulfuron and dicamba plus glyphosate or glyphosate alone...
Field studies were conducted in 2011 at the Malheur Experiment Station, Ontario, OR and Prosser, WA to evaluate the effect of simulated glyphosate drift on direct-seeded dry bulb onion. Glyphosate was applied at 8.6, 25.8, 86, 290, 434, and 860 g ae ha⁻¹ when onion plants were at the flag-,...
Field studies were conducted in 2008 in Ontario, OR and Paterson, WA to determine the effect of simulated glyphosate drift on 'Ranger Russet' potato, including visual injury, shikimic acid accumulation, and tuber yield. Glyphosate was applied at 8.5, 54, 107, 215, and 423 g ae ha(-1); which corresponds to 0.01,...
Greenhouse studies were conducted to evaluate the influence of selected adjuvants on
glyphosate efficacy on yellow nutsedge and tuber production. Glyphosate was applied
at 0, 0.25, 0.43, 0.87, 1.26 (1x rate), and 1.74 kg ae ha⁻¹ 31 d after yellow nutsedge
was planted. Each rate was mixed with one of...
Field studies were conducted in 2008 and 2009 in
Aberdeen, ID, Ontario, OR, and Paterson, WA to determine
the effect of simulated glyphosate drift on ‘Ranger Russet’
potato during the application year and the crop growing the
next year from the daughter tubers. Glyphosate was applied at
8.5, 54, 107,...
Field trials were conducted in 2009 and 2010 near Paterson, WA and Ontario, OR to evaluate weed control and potato tolerance to PRE-applied pyroxasulfone, saflufenacil, and KSU12800 herbicides. Pyroxasulfone at 0.09 to 0.15 kg ai ha⁻¹ and saflufenacil at 0.05 to 0.07 kg ai ha⁻¹ applied PRE alone or in...
Feedback loops involving soil microorganisms can
regulate plant populations. Here, we hypothesize that microorganisms
are most likely to play a role in plant–soil feedback
loops when they possess an affinity for a particular plant and
the capacity to consistently affect the growth of that plant for
good or ill. We...
