various adjuvants carry out different functions depending on the herbicides types and the target species. outdoor pot experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of three post-emergence herbicides, namely, clodinafop-propargyl, haloxyfop-p-methyl, and difenzoquat-methyl-sulfate, as influenced by two adjuvants, on wild oat (avena ludoviciana durieu.) control. the study was carried out at ...

wild barley has invaded wheat fields ever since flamprop-isopropyl was outdated in iran. newly developed herbicides such as sulfosulfuron or sulfosulfuron plus metsulfuron-methyl can control it at higher than recommended dosages, but causing significant wheat injury. hence, two dose-response experiments were conducted to evaluate their efficacy when tank-mixed with thirteen different vegetable ...

A study was carried out over 2 years (2008/2009 and 2009/2010) in Greece, in order to evaluate the weed control using reduced rates of the herbicide mesosulfuron-methyl+iodosulfuron-methyl-sodium of four major weeds (Avena sterilis, Phalaris minor, Papaver rhoeas and Sinapis arvensis), grain yield and yield components of five wheat cultivars (Bob, Cosmodur, Meridiano, Quadrato and Simeto). The ...

Environmental risks resulting from increasing application of herbicides have raised many concerns about human health and safety of agro ecosystems and environment. Hence, it is very important to find practical and effective methods for reducing the use of pesticides in environment as well as the increasing the efficiency of these compounds. Addition of adjuvants to spray solutions could be cons...

PURPOSE: A small-scale study was conducted to evaluate fluridone (1-methyl-3-phenyl-5-[3trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4(1H)-pyridinone) efficacy under varying levels of turbidity when controlling curlyleaf pondweed (Potamogeton crispus L.). There is no information on the effect of turbidity on fluridone efficacy against curlyleaf pondweed. It is unknown if turbidity impacts aqueous fluridone concentr...

Methods for woody plant herbicide screening were assayed with the goal of reducing resources and time required to conduct preliminary screenings for new products. Rapid screening methods tested included greenhouse seedling screening, germinal screening, and seed screening. Triclopyr and eight experimental herbicides from Dow AgroSciences (DAS 313, 402, 534, 548, 602, 729, 779, and 896) were tes...

James R. Mahan Plant Stress and Water Conservation Laboratory, USDA-ARS, 3810 Fourth Street, Lubbock, TX 79415-3397 Pyrithiobac control of Palmer amaranth on the Texas Southern High Plains was correlated previously with temperature at the time of application. In the present study, the thermal dependence of pyrithiobac efficacy was used to define a thermal application range (TAR) for postemergen...

in this study, the effects of weed control treatments and plant density on lentil (lens culinaris) yield and yield components as well as weed control efficacy were investigated. the study was conducted according to a split-plot arrangement based on randomized completely block design in three replicates in karaj in 2007-2008. the weed control chemical treatments in four levels (trifluralin herbi...
