Abstract/Contents:"Recently, several generic herbicide and plant growth regulators have been formulated and have been or will likely be registered for use in turfgrass environments. Minimal research has been completed looking at the efficacy of these herbicides and plant growth regulators compared to proprietary products. Therefore, some concern exists if these products perform similarly or if differences exist. Research trials were initiated to evaluate several generic herbicide and plant growth regulator formulations to determine if they performed similarly to proprietary products. Generic formulations of prodiamine, oxadiazon, and oryzalin were evaluated for preemergence control of smooth crabgrass (Digitaria ischaemum), while dithiopyr and quinclorac were evaluated for early postemergence control of smooth crabgrass. Additionally, generic formulations of trinexapac-ethyl were evaluated for foliar suppression of 'Tifsport' bermudagrass. All generic products were compared to proprietary labeled herbicides or plant growth regulators. Data collected from these trials indicates evaluated generic herbicides and plant growth regulators performed similarly to proprietary products as no differences existed within evaluated parameters. Throughout each of the research trials, no significant reductions in smooth crabgrass control were observed. Likewise, bermudagrass foliar suppression was consistent with each formulation of trinexapac-ethyl. These data indicate generic herbicides and plant growth regulators may offer a viable solution in select turfgrass environments."
