Abstract/Contents: | "Managing Poa annua is a dilemma sod producers and golf course superintendents face. Poa annua is a genetically diverse weed that thrives in cool, moist turf conditions with rich soils, but tolerates a variety of harsh environments including low frequent mowing and compacted soils. Several perennial subspecies of Poa annua exist and do not respond to preemergence herbicides once established. Unfortunately, these perennial Poa annua plants in time often dominate the flora. Over the past several years numerous active ingredients for managing Poa annua have been evaluated, with some of these materials showing good activity against Poa annua. However, few of these materials have displayed selectivity to creeping bentgrass. The lack of an effective selective postemergence herbicide continues to leave sod producers and golf course superintendents with few means of Poa annua control once established. One new compound, Bispyribac-sodium, has been evaluated in creeping bentgrass and consistently displayed selectivity against Poa annua without disrupting creeping bentgrass growth. Valent U.S.A. Corporation is developing bispyribac-sodium, the active ingredient in Velocity herbicide, for use in sod farms and golf courses. Velocity herbicide has shown safety to cool season turfgrass and provides postemergence control of several aggressive weeds including Poa annua and Poa trivialis. Experiments were conducted throughout the United States the past five years evaluating the potential for using Velocity herbicide on actively growing creeping bentgrass. The objective of these trials was to evaluate the performance of Velocity herbicide when applied under different environmental conditions to determine the potential for this herbicide in the turfgrass market. In addition to evaluating Velocity herbicide at several locations, treatments included evaluation of different rates, timings and application intervals. Data from these trials confirmed Velocity herbicide provides a Poa annua management strategy for sod producers and golf course superintendents." |
