The adoption of Roundup Ready 2 Xtendsoybean allows growers to use dicamba (Xtendimax or Engenia) in mixtures with glyphosate (Roundup PowerMax) graminicides (Select Max Assure II) for broad spectrum weed control. However, anecdotal evidence suggests that Xtendimax may cause antagonism when applied Select and/or II herbicides. main objective this study was determine the effectiveness PowerMax, ...

Garrison creeping foxtail can increase the forage yield of wet meadows. However, tillage can be problematic on heavy-textured soils and thick sod mats often associated with wet meadows. This study examined the potential of establishing Garrison with the use of herbicides and no-till planting. Garrison was no-till drilled into a wet meadow using herbicide control of existing vegetation in the en...

Foxtail millet is an important crop in Northwest China; however, the mechanism responsible for regulating root adjustment, including water uptake, sugar transport, or metabolism, foxtail remains unclear. Two cultivars (the drought-resistant Yugu1 [YG] and drought-sensitive An04 [An]) were used to detect physiological, molecular, agronomic traits under two different soil conditions. Water use ef...

Foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) is an important food crop with strong drought stress tolerance. The response of foxtail to a complex regulatory network. It great guiding significance for agricultural production continuously explore candidate genes resistance and reveal the molecular mechanism metabolic pathway This study investigated three different cultivars resistance. Drought reduced wat...

Three different herbicides were applied at early bromegrass greenup and post hay harvest to assess their effectiveness in controlling foxtail two producer meadow sites Pottawatomie (PT) Dickinson (DK) counties. Pendimethalin resulted the greatest control, but control did not extend through season reduce late-summer infestations. Metsulfuron approximately 30% visible brome injury. The injury was...

Recent concern about survival and recovery of highelevation white pine ecosystems has returned white pine blister rust (caused by Cronartium ribicola) to prominence as a significant threat to forest health in the western U.S. (Samman et al., 2003). This, in turn, has spurred new research into potential rustresistance mechanisms in high-elevation white pines, including whitebark (Pinus albicauli...

inhibiting subtilisin BPN'. This paper describes purification and characterization of a subtilisin inhibitor (FMSI) from foxtail millet grain. Protein was measured by the method of Lowry et al.2) using bovine serum albumin as a standard. Protein concentrations of enzyme solutions were measured spectrophotometrically with extinction coefficients as described previously.3) The concentration of St...
