Abstract/Contents: | "Granular formulations of 2, 4-D ((2, 4-dichlorophenoxy) acetic acid) in combination with other phenoxy or benzoic acid herbicides are commonly used in residential and commercial lawns; however, public concern over the safety of 2, 4-D has created the need for alternatives. Granular formulations of quinclorac (3, 7 - dichloro - 8 - quinolinecarboxylic acid) in combination with clopyralid + triclopyr (premixed combination of 3, 6 - dichloro - 2 - pyridinecarboxylic acid and [(3, 5, 6 - trichloro - 2 - pyridinyl) oxy] acetic acid, respectively) or dichlorprop ((+-) - 2 - (2, 4 - dichlorophenoxy) propanoic acid) controlled broadleaf plantain (Plantago major L.), common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale Weber in Wiggers), and white clover (Trifolium repens L.) equal to or better than an industry standard 2, 4 - D + dichlorprop granule. In general, granules were slightly less effective and produced more variable results between tests than spray applications. However, where rainfall was plentiful granular combinations of quinclorac + clopyralid + triclopyr or quinclorac + dichlorprop completely controlled broadleaf plantain, dandelion and clover. Additionally, in a cool, moist year, applications to dry or moist foliage were equally effective; whereas, in a dry year applying granules to moist foliage improved control. Fertilizer and inert carriers were equally effective. Overall, granular combinations of quinclorac with clopyralid + triclopyr or with dichlorprop controlled weeds as effectively as the commercially available 2, 4 - D + dichlorprop granule, and under optimum conditions were equal to spray applications." |
