to study the effect of different weed control methods in tomato, an experiment was conducted as completely randomized block design with three replications at the research farm of university of tehran (karaj) in 2008. the treatments consisted of post emergence (at recommended rate) or pre emergence (reduced rate in combination with mulch) application of metribuzin, rimsulfuron and sulfosulfuron,...

Peer-reviewed research is not available to explain Polygonum aviculare L. (prostrate knotweed) control in Cynodon dactylon (bermudagrass) turf, yet P. common and troublesome managed C. turf. Six experiments were conducted determine options for golf roughs Hanover, VA. Studies evaluated hormone, photosystem, ALS inhibiting herbicides. Among a group of eighteen herbicide treatments, only six cont...

Use of herbicides, in particular sulfosulfuron, at more than recommended doses has raised major concerns about the health hazards for animals and humans. In the present study, isolation of sulfosulfuron-degrading Brevibacillus borstelensis and Streptomyces albogriseolus from the field soils in the northwestern region of India was carried out where the use of sulfosulfuron is predominant, and fu...

Herbicides are usually applied multiple times by growers for season long weed control in Florida citrus (Citrus sp.). Rimsulfuron, a sulfonylurea herbicide has been recently registered for control of certain grasses and broadleaf weeds in citrus. To increase the weed control spectrum and reduce application cost, citrus growers often prefer to tank mix herbicides. Field experiments were conducte...

We conducted greenhouse experiments to compare photosynthetic and growth responses of 2 invasive annual grasses (downy brome = Bromus tectorum L. and medusahead = Taeniatherum caput-medusae (L.) [Nevski]), 6 caespitose grasses, and 7 rhizomatous grasses to the herbicide sulfosulfuron (1-(2-ethylsulfonylimidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-ylsulfonyl)-3-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)urea). Our objectives were...

A Section 3 registration is being requested for ShadeoutJ which contains the herbicide, rimsulfuron. This registration is for a new use of rimsulfuron to control weeds in tomato fields. The proposed tolerance for rimsulfuron on tomatoes is 0.1 ppm. The critical acute No-Observed-Effect Level (NOEL) was 500 mg/kg/day based on a ruffled fur and transient weight losses in rats after a single expos...

Panicoid grasses are major weeds of maize and sugarcane as well as of several other important grains, including sorghum, pearl millet, and foxtail millet. Pot trials were conducted to study the activity and potential interactions of topramezone in mixture with recommended rates of rimsulfuron or nicosulfuron on three annual panicoid grasses (i.e. Echinochloa oryzoides, E. phyllopogon, and Panic...

Many countries are now facing the problem of increase in resistant biotypes weeds. The spread herbicide-resistant weeds across agrophytocenoses poses a threat decrease effectiveness use herbicides agricultural fields. In order to develop anti-resistant compositions for protection maize (Zea mays L.) crops, we studied effects interaction and efficiency weed control greenhouse field experiments. ...

this experiment was conducted at research green-house, department of weed research, iranian plant protection institute, to evaluate the efficacy of sulfosulfuron rates in controlling of barely weed species (including hordeum murinum, h. spontaneum, h. distinchom, h. vulgar) in the 2007. first factor was different times of sulfosulfuron application including 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 leaf stages and the...
