| Abstract/Contents: | "Buckhorn plantain (Plantago lanceolata L.) is a cool-season perennial species that has become increasingly more common on Alabama roadsides. While herbicides such as metsulfuron and 2,4-D have activity against this weed, repeat applications are often needed to prevent regrowth from occurring. Research was conducted winter 2009- 2010 to evaluate herbicide treatments for control of buckhorn plantain. Two different locations were chosen for this study. The first location was on the campus of Auburn University in Alabama. The soil at this location is a sandy loam with a pH of 6.3. The second location was located in the Black Belt region of Alabama, near White Hall. This site has a silty clay soil with pH of 7.4. Several herbicides and herbicide combinations were tested. Treatments and rates evaluated were: Milestone VM (aminopyralid) at 7 fl oz/A, Escort XP (metsulfuron) at 0.5 oz/A, Opensight (aminopyralid + metsulfuron) at 3 oz/A, Garlon 3A (triclopyr) + DMA 4 IVM (2,4-D) at 1 pt/A + 2 pt/A, Milestone VM + Escort XP at 5 fl oz/A + 0.5 oz/A, Milestone VM + DMA 4 IVM at 5 fl oz/A + 2 pt/A, DMA 4 IVM + Escort XP at 2 pt/A + 0.5 oz/A, Perspective (aminocyclopyrachlor + chlorsulfuron) at 4.75 oz/A, and Streamline (aminocyclopyrachlor + metsulfuron) at 4.75 oz/A. Visual estimates of control were taken on a 0-100% scale, with 0% = no control. Results from the two studies were not consistent and therefore data could not be pooled. Generally, control at the White Hall location was less with all treatments than that observed at the Auburn location. The only treatments to provide consistent control at both locations were Streamline and Perspective. At the Auburn location, control 135 days after treatment (DAT) was >97% with both products. At the White Hall site, control was 85% with Perspective and 90% with Streamline. Control with all other treatments at White Hall was <71%. Several treatments at the Auburn site provided good-excellent control for the same period. Treatments and control at Auburn were: Milestone VM (63%), Escort XP (92%), Opensight (93%), Garlon 3A + DMA 4 IVM (70%), Milestone VM + Escort XP (88%), Milestone VM + DMA 4 IVM (94%), and DMA 4 IVM + Escort XP (84%). Control ratings taken at 146 DAT in Auburn revealed that control with Streamline and Perspective was still >97%. However, all other treatments had fallen significantly, all below 72%. Control at White Hall followed a similar trend with later ratings revealing poor control with all products except Streamline and Perspective (90 and 85%, respectively, 186 DAT). These results show that buckhorn plantain can regenerate from a single application of many products used on Alabama highway rights-of-way. However, repeating herbicide applications is generally not feasible for the Alabama Department of Transportation. Therefore, in areas where buckhorn plantain populations are high, fall applications of Streamline and Perspective show the greatest promise in reducing this weed. Research is planned to repeat these studies in order to further determine effective herbicide treatments as well as explore the difference seen between the two sites." |
