| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses research conducted in 2005 at the Iowa State University Horticulture Research Station to "determine: 1) what rate of mesotrione provides acceptable (>80%) weed control, 2) if these rates are non-phytotoxic to turfgrasses, 3) if the addition of a prodiamine is beneficial at late postemergence timings, and 4) is the residual activity acceptable." Details the material and methods used in the study, stating that "the research area consisted of an unknown variety of Kentucky bluegrass uniformly interseeded with crabgrass seed" and that "the trial was arranged as a randomixed complete block design with 3 replications." Reports that "mesotrione applications provided effective postemergence control of crabgrass...No phyotoxicity was observed on Kentucky bluegrass plants at any time after the early postemergence applications of mesotrione." Concludes that "overall, Kentucky bluegrass appeared tolerant of mesotrione applications." |
