| Abstract/Contents: | "Bermudagrass continues to be the predominant turfgrass for southern golf course fairways, tees, and rough areas. In the past decade, improved seeded bermudagrass cultivars have been developed that have superior turfgrass quality compared to earlier seeded types and are now being incorporated into many turfgrass situations. When establishing a turfgrass such as bermudagrass from seed, a major concern is the control of weeds during the establishment phase, as excessive weed pressure can lead to delayed establishment and reduced quality. The overall objective of this research was to determine the types of herbicides that could be safely used during bermudagrass establishment. The major conclusions from this work included: Many of the most common herbicides that are used on mature bermudagrass can also be safely used on bermudagrass seedlings. Most herbicides were safely applied as early as two weeks after emergence. Herbicides that caused significant injury to bermudagrass seedlings included diclofop (Illoxan), metsulfuron (Manor), and metribuzin (Sencor). These herbicides should not be used until bermudagrass is fully established. Herbicides that demonstrated excellent safety on new bermudagrass seedlings included MSMA, quinclorac (Drive), and dicamba. Sulfonylurea herbicides such as flazasulfuron (Katana), foramsulfuron (Revolver), and trifloxysulfuron (Monument) exhibited excellent safety on seedling bermudagrass." |
