Field experiments were carried out over three years (2004-05, to 2006-07) to study the efficacy of a post-emergence dual-purpose herbicide (mesosulfuron – methyl (3%) + iodosulfuron – methyl – sodium (0.6%) + mefenpyr – diethyl (9%) to control Lolium rigidum Gaud. and broad-leaved weeds in no-till wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). A ready herbicide mixture was used at three doses (6+1.2, 9+1.8 and ...

This study used a static, partial budgeting approach to estimate the potential net benefits of the adoption of herbicide-tolerant transgenic rice in California. Scenarios were developed based on average cost figures across the state using actual pesticide use data and assuming a rice-only rotation, as well as a three-year field study of efficacy of herbicide regimes in the presence of herbicide...

A field study was conducted in 2015 and 2016 Stoneville, MS, to evaluate the influence of cytokinin products on soybean injury weed control when combined with common POST herbicide treatments. Cytokinin treatments included no mixture two formulated mixtures (kinetin-1 kinetin-2) applied at 0.000227 kg ai ha−1. Herbicide were herbicide, glyphosate 1.37 ae ha−1 alone combination S-metolachlor 1.4...

Weed infestations in agricultural systems constitute a serious challenge to agricultural sustainability and food security worldwide. Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson (Palmer amaranth) is one of the most noxious weeds causing significant yield reductions in various crops. The ability to estimate seed viability and herbicide susceptibility is a key factor in the development of a long-term management ...

Available research is reviewed on the interactions of application variables, herbicides, and species. Objectives of this review are to gain insights into why variation occurs with herbicide performance, how current knowledge might be applied to enhance efficacy and consistency, and research pathways that should foster integration of applicationefikacy models. A historical context is provided on...

Glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl) glycine] is a broad spectrum, post emergent herbicide and is among the most widely used agricultural chemicals globally. Initially developed to control the growth of weed species in agriculture, this herbicide also plays an important role in both modern silviculture and domestic weed control. The creation of glyphosate tolerant crop species has significantly incr...

Four efficacy and selectivity small plot field trials were carried out in four sunflower hybrids at two localities in Middle Bohemia during 2008 and 2009 with herbicides containing the active ingredients flumioxazin and fluorochloridone. For Chenopodium album, an efficacy of 97% was found after pre-emergent application of fluorochloridone + acetochlor; the efficacy of oxyfluorfen was 88–95%; th...

chlorophyll fluorescence induction is a rapid and noninvasive technique for measuring photosynthetic electron transport in plants. chlorophyll fluorescence measurements were performed under greenhouse condition to characterize how the fluorescence induction curves (kautsky curve) and its parameters were affected by metribuzin in susceptible and resistant junglerice (echinochloa colona (l.) link...

Lolium rigidum Gaud. is one of the most common weed species in winter cereals in Northeastern Spain. Herbicide resistance has been growing since the mid 90’s and exclusive herbicide use is not enough in many cases, so that it is necessary to combine as many control tools as possible. Six field trials have been conducted during the cropping seasons 200102, 2002-03 and 2003-04 on winter cereal in...
