Abstract/Contents:"Plant propagation techniques were investigated at the DuPont Stine-Haskell Research Center in Newark, DE over the past several years to establish a means for optimizing targeted plant species growth for herbicide screening on key turfgrass weed species. Highly reproducible propagation techniques for difficult to grow species have been integrated into our screening methods in an effort to enhance the quality of data generated via whole plant testing. Such methods aid in the elimination of plant growth variability, making it easier for the evaluating biologist to discern true differences in plant responses. Propagation techniques employed include seed soaks, chemical scarification and vegetative reproduction. Target species investigated included: wild violet (Viola papilionacea Pursh p.p.), wild garlic (Allium vineale L.), buckhorn plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.), ivyleaf speedwell (Veronica hederifolia L.), dollarweed (Hydrocotyle umbellata L.), torpedo grass (Panicum repens L.) and green kyllinga (Kyllinga brevifolia Rottb)."
