| Abstract/Contents: | "Ongoing research at the University of Tennessee is being conducted for selective postemergence bermudagrass control in zoysiagrass turf, weed control during seeded zoysiagrass establishment, and methods for converting bermudagrass fairways to seeded zoysiagrass varieties. Preliminary results to date suggest: Fluazifop (Fusilade II) tank-mixed with triclopyr (Turflon Ester)showed a safening affect when compared to fluazifop applied alone at 2- and 4-week intervals. Fluazifop alone at 6, 9, 12, and 15 fl. oz./acre on 2-week intervals causes unacceptable cover reduction to 'Compadre' and 'Palisade' zoysiagrass. Fluazifop is safe to apply up to 15 fl. oz./acre at 4-week intervals to 'Compadre' and 'Palisade' zoysiagrass when tank-mixed with triclopyr. Herbicides applied at zoysiagrass seeding led to poor zoysiagrass germination. Fluazifop tank-mixed triclopyr (6 and 12 fl. oz./acre) controlled goosegrass and broadleaf weed pressure, thereby increasing zoysiagrass germination. Applying fluazifop tank-mixed with triclopyr (6 fl. oz./acre) at 4 weeks after emergence produced 98% zoysiagrass cover by 10 weeks after emergence. Aggressive soil disturbance is needed to establish zoysiagrass from seed in killed bermudagrass areas. Establishing seeded zoysiagrass without soil disturbance in killed bermudagrass areas is not recommended." |
