Abstract/Contents:"Creeping bentgrass can be a serious weed in Kentucky bluegrass turf with no commercially available, selective control. Field trials were conducted in Urbana, IL, USA, beginning in 1996 and continuing through 2004 to determine the activity of new herbicides with a novel mode of action for selective control of creeping bentgrass in Kentucky bluegrass. Isoxaflutole was evaluated at rates of 100, 150, and 200 gm ai ha-1 applied either singly or sequentially on 2, 3, or 4-week application intervals in trials conducted in 1996, 1997, and 2000. Mesotrione was evaluated at rates of 140, 280, and 560 gm ai ha-1 either singly or sequentially in two trials initiated in 2003 and 2004. Creeping bentgrass was injured by all rates and timings of both herbicides. However, unless 2 to 3 sequential applications were made, bentgrass recovered from the herbicide injury and control from single applications was unacceptable. For isoxaflutole, best control was achieved from 3 sequential applications at a rate of 420 gm ai ha-1. Mesotrione appeared to cause less Kentucky bluegrass injury than isoxaflutole. Injury to Kentucky bluegrass was always superficial and removed with the next mowing. Both herbicides can control a serious weed problem, however, turf managers must be willing to accept a short-term reduction in turf quality when treated plant material turns white."
