Abstract/Contents: | "Postemergence herbicides used for weed control in bermudagrasses (Cynodon ssp.) often cause turf injury. A field experiment was initiated to determine the effect of multiple foliar-iron (Fe) applications for reducing injury from postemergence herbicides on 'Tifway' bermudagrass [C. transvaalensis Burtt-Davy x C. dactylon (L.) Pers.]. Iron was applied at 1 to 4 applications at 1.12 kg Fe/ha (1.0 lb/A) per treatment on a 4-day interval. Herbicides were applied at recommended rates. When bermudagrass was treated with either Image (Imagzaquin), {2-[4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-5-oxo-1H-im idazol-2-y1]-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid}, MSMA (monosodium salt of MAA), and MSMA plus Image or Sencor (Metribuzin), [4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-(methylthio)-1,2,4-triazi n-5(4H)-one], 2 Fe applications caused only slight turf color improvement compared to 1 Fe. Three Fe applications compared to 1 Fe, however, significantly enhanced turf color by 1 to 10% in combination with all herbicides for 16 to 26 days after initial treatment. The 4 Fe treatment provided only minor improvement in degree of color or duration of color response versus 3 Fe. Iron did not influence any shoot density loss caused by herbicides. On high-maintenance turf where discoloration is objectionable, the use of multiple Fe applications would be feasible for reducing herbicide-induced color loss." |
