Abstract/Contents: | "In this series of glasshouse experiments, several factors influencing the foliar activity of fluazifop-butyl, butyl-1- [4-(5-trifluoromethyl-2-pyridyloxy)phenoxy] propionate, against Elymus repens (L.) Goulf (=Agropyron repens(L.) Beauv.) were investigated. The growth stage of the weed even up to about 16 weeks of age was not found to be a major factor affecting the performance, if a dose of 1.0 kg ai ha-1 is used. The activity of fluazifop-butyl was affected by low temperature, low humidity and water stress, all of which reduced the herbicide performance to varying extents. High post-treatment temperature or humidity favored the activity of the herbicide, as measured from the regrowth ability of the treated plants. Moderate water stress did not affect the activity significantly, but severe stress led to the plants becoming more tolerant of the herbicide. The effect of light/shade on foliar activity was not clear, but showed a tendency of decreasing with increasing shade. Adverse effects of rain, probably due to wash-off of the retained spray droplets, reduced the performance of fluazifop-butyl, if rain fell within 6 hours of spraying." |
