Abstract/Contents:"The efficacies of microencapsulated (ME) and emulsifiable concentrate (EC) formulations of alachlor [2-chloro-N- (2,6-diethylphenyl)-N-(methoxymethyl) acetamide] and metolachlor [2-chloro-N-(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)-N- (2-methoxy-1-methylethyl) acetamide] were compared in petri dish and soil bioassays. At equimolar concentrations, EC-alachlor inhibited shoot growth of barnyardgrass [Echinocloa crus-galli (L.) Beauv. #3 ECHCG], large crabgrass [Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scot. # DIGSA], and fall panicum (Panicum dichotomiflorum Michx. # PANDI) more than ME-alachlor. ME- and EC-metolachlor caused similar effects on the three grass weeds tested. ME- and EC-alachlor in combination caused effects on barnyardgrass shoot growth intermediate to results with either formulation alone. Air-drying and remoistening of alachlor-treated filter paper or soil before sowing barnyardgrass or fall panicum caused greater shoot length and fresh weight reduction than ME-alachlor that was not dried."
