Abstract/Contents:"After all these years of working with crabgrass and it's control, what do we know or better yet what don't we know about crabgrass? Do we know what species we are working with? There are 3 major weed crabgrass species in the United States, Digitaria sanguinalis, D. ischaemum, and D. ciliaris or large, smooth and southern crabgrass. Are there more species, or biotypes that are present? Does the seed require light for germination, or is the light quality critical? What temperature is required for germination for each species? Will temperature or light override the other factor? Where does it germinate, in the soil or in the thatch? From germination how long before emergence, to the first true leaf, first tiller, flowering and seeding? Under different light, nutrient and moisture regimes what interference occurs with different turf species. What factors determine the location of the species? Though we study control measures using different herbicides, rates of application and combinations of products, do we know the biology of the plant we are trying to control?"
