Abstract/Contents: | "Seeded bermudagrass is most susceptible to weed infestations and winter injury during its first growing season. The objective of this trial was to evaluate the effects of mesotrione, applied in the fall to two seeded bermudagrass cultivars, on winter injury and spring green-up. The two seeded bermudagrass cultivars tested were Princess-77 and Riviera, which are considered cold-sensitive and cold-resistant, respectively. This trial was seeded in the late summer of 2008 and was concluded once the turf canopy reached 100% cover the following summer. There were 4 treatments in this trial, including 4 sequential applications of 0.125 lb a.i./acre, 2 sequential applications of 0.25 lb a.i./ acre and 2 sequential applications of 0.5 lb a.i./acre. Turfgrass coverage ratings were documented using digital image analysis. Significant reductions in grass cover were observed on both cultivars in the fall for all herbicide treatments. Spring green up was slightly delayed due to herbicide treatment, especially with the cold-sensitive cultivar, Princess-77, when mesotrione was applied at the highest rate." |
