Abstract XtendFlex® technology from Bayer allows growers to apply glyphosate, glufosinate, and dicamba POST cotton. Since the evolution spread of glyphosate-resistant weed species, early applications with several modes action have become common. However, crop injury potential these warrants further examination. Field studies were conducted 2015 2017 at two locations in Mississippi evaluate cott...

Abstract Tahitian bridal veil [ Gibasis pellucida (M. Martens & Galeotti) D.R. Hunt], a Central and South America native plant that is often confused with another more well-known invasive plant, small leaf spiderwort ( Tradescantia fluminensis Vell.), has become in natural areas throughout Florida. However, very little known regarding herbicide control or other methods. To begin the process...

Since transgenic, bromoxynil-resistant cotton and glufosinate-resistant canola were introduced in 1995, planting of transgenic herbicide-resistant crops has grown substantially, revolutionizing weed management where they have been available. Before 1995, several commercial herbicide-resistant crops were produced by biotechnology through selection for resistance in tissue culture. However, non-t...

Atrazine is a foundational herbicide in corn (Zea mays L.) because of its broad-spectrum weed control and utility for pre-emergence or postemergence applications. Extensive atrazine use has led to traces groundwater, surface water, aquifers. This research explored regimes with little no atrazine. Pre-emergence treatments [S-metolachlor (0.955 lb acre–1); saflufenacil (0.054 oz acre–1) plus dime...

by the publication of a high-quality genome sequence—only the third such sequence for any plant species (Tuskan et al. 2006). In spite of over 200 field trials of GE trees that have been reported in at least 35 countries, the only commercially deployed transgenic trees are insect-resistant Populus nigra and white poplar (clone 741) in China (Food and Agriculture Organization 2004), and virus-re...
