Abstract/Contents: | "Five field experiments were established in 1995 and 1996 in North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida, USA, to investigate the growth regulatory effects of imazameth on Paspalum notatum. Imazameth at 0.036, 0.053, 0.071, 0.11, and 0.14 kg/ha reduced grass quality at some point in the growing season but the grass recovered at 4 of 5 locations by 16 weeks after treatment. Imazameth at rates equal to or greater than 0.071 kg/ha reduced grass density 16 weeks after treatment at 3 of 5 locations. Grass quality and density were more severely affected by all imazameth rates at 8 weeks after treatment than at 4 or 16 weeks after treatment. Seedhead suppression was acceptable with all imazameth rates. Both North Carolina sites had imazameth treatments that resulted in no seedhead production. One North Carolina site showed enhanced imazameth activity with addition of a nonionic surfactant. The Georgia and Florida sites had sufficient season-long seed head suppression to significantly reduce mowing. These results indicate imazameth can effectively be used to reduce mowing costs associated with the management of Paspalum notatum. However, rates ā„ 0.071 kg/ha pose a risk of significant stand reduction." |
