Abstract/Contents:"Common bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) commonly invades zoysiagrass throughout the southern United States. Research was conducted in 2009 at the East Tennessee Research and Education Center to evaluate mixtures of fluazifop-p-butyl (fluazifop) and triclopyr applied at multiple timings for selective postemergence bermudagrass control in zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica) turf. Plots measuring 1 x 1 meters were arranged in a 4 x 5 factorial design replicated three times. Herbicide treatment and application timing served as factors in this study. The 4 herbicide treatments evaluated were single applications of fluazifop + triclopyr applied at rates of 0.10 + 1.13 kg ai/ha, 0.21 + 1.13 kg ai/ha, 0.32 + 1.13 kg ai/ha, respectively and an untreated check. All treatments were applied with a CO2 powered boom sprayer calibrated to deliver 280 L/ha. The sprayer boom contained four, flat-fan nozzles spaced 25 cm apart. A wheeled aluminum frame maintained the boom height 25 cm above the surface while spraying at 124 kPa. These treatments were applied at 5 timings: 200 growing degree days (GDD10C), 450 GDD10C, 825 GDD10C, 1275 GDD10C, and 1775 GDD10C. Yearly accumulated GDD10C were calculated beginning January 1st using a Celsius scale according to the equation, GDD10C = [(Tmax- Tmin)/2] - Tbase where Tmax represents the daily maximum air temperature, Tmin represents the daily minimum air temperature, and Tbase equals 10°C. Bermudagrass control and zoysiagrass injury were assessed weekly from 1 WAT (weeks after treatment) to 9 WAT using a visual scale from 0 (no control or injury) to 100% (complete control). Bermudagrass and zoysiagrass injury were also assessed by relative chlorophyll index (R840nm/R700nm) with a hand-held chlorophyll meter. Data were subjected to ANOVA in SAS. Fisher's protected LSD values were used to separate means significant at the α=0.05 level. Treatments of fluazifop + triclopyr applied at 1775 GDD10C provided greater bermudagrass control than all other treatments 7,8 and 9 WAT. Control following fluazifop + triclopyr applied at 200 GDD10C was greater 6 and 7 WAT than treatments applied at 450 GDD10C, 825 GDD10C and 1275 GDD10C. All treatments except the 450 GDD10C application of fluazifop + triclopyr at 0.32 + 1.13 kg, respectively, provided greater than 60% bermudagrass control 2 WAT. By 9 WAT control was below 15% for all treatments except those applied at 1775 GDD10C for which control was greater than 80%. Zoysiagrass injury was less than 10% for all treatments applied at 1775 GDD10C at all ratings dates. Zoysiagrass injury 7 DAT for all treatments applied at 200 GDD10C ranged from 10-20%. No zoysiagrass injury was detected for any treatment 5-9 WAT."
