| Abstract/Contents: | "In 2002 and 2003, Dow AgroSciences, with the assistance of numerous contract researchers, evaluated a pyridine herbicide [fluroxypyr 1-methylheptyl ester (MHE) or (4-amino-3,5-dichloro-6-fluoro-2-pyridinyl) oxy) acetic acid, 1-methylheptyl ester)] for use on turfgrass for postemergent broadleaf weed control. Since herbicides containing clopyralid will no longer be available on residential turf, due to allegations of persistence in yard waste compost, Dow recognized the need for a new broad spectrum herbicide that was not phytotoxic to turfgrasses. Many broadleaf herbicides containing phenoxys such as 2,4-D, MCPP, and/or Dicamba can be injurious to warm season turf species such as St. Augustinegrass and Bermudagrass, but clopyralid (Lontrel T&O*) has gained a reputation as being one of the least phytotoxic options in the marketplace. Furthermore, sulfonyl urea herbicides are relatively expensive to the end user while other options such as triazines are under regulatory pressure to limit their use. Studies have demonstrated how a 1.5EC formulation of fluroxypyr MHE is efficacious to prevalent broadleaf weeds such as white clover without causing unacceptable turf injury. Warm season turf tolerance is comparable to that of the 3SL formulation of triclopyr and clopyralid (Confront*). This 1.5EC formulation of fluroxypyr MHE was granted a federal label for postemergent broadleaf weed control in turfgrass in late 2003 and the new product will be called Spotlight*. Other formulations (such as EF-1063 a 3.1EW with Fluroxypyr (0.6 lb/gal) and MCPP (2.5 lb/gal) ) combining fluroxypyr with other active ingredients are being explored. Spotlight* will be a viable option for safe and effective broadleaf weed control in turfgrass." |
