Abstract/Contents: | "Two or three applications of MSMA applied alone were ineffective in controlling smutgrass in common bermudagrass turf. Where atrazine at 2.2 kg ai/ha or simazine at 2.2 kg/ha was followed by two or three MSMA applications at 2.2 or 4.5 kg/ha, smutgrass control was increased. Metribuzin followed by two or three application of MSMA applications at 2.2 or 4.5 kg/ha, smutgrass control was increased. Metribuzin followed by two or three applications of MSMA was only slightly better than MSMA applied alone. Up to 35% injury to bermudagrass was observed 2 wk after the initial MSMA or MSMA-triazine treatment, but complete recovery was evident 2 to 4 wk later, even with one or two follow-up MSMA applications at weekly intervals. Bermudagrass injury from the application of triazines followed with MSMA did not differ from MSMA applied alone in two of three experiments. In one experiment, atrazine or metribuzin follow with MSMA applications caused 10 to 25% more bermudagrass injury than MSMA applied alone." |
