Abstract/Contents: | "Preemergence applications of herbicides were evaluated for their effect on establishment of zoysiagrass (Zoysia japonica Steud.) with competition from either smooth crabgrass [Digitaria ischaemum (Schreb.) Muhl.] or goosegrass [Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertn.]. When 'Meyer' and 'Beliar' zoysiagrass plugs were grown in sand and treated in the greenhouse, none of ther herbicides reduced root weight or length. When plugs were grown in a Sassafrass sandy loam, bensulide and simazine reduced root weight, and simazine reduced root length of Belair, but not Meyer. In smooth crabgrass-infested field plots, more stolons were produced from Meyer plugs treated with simazine, oxadiazon and siduron than plugs treated with bensulide, metribuzin, or the untreated control. At the end of two growing seasons, metribuzin-treated plots had significantly less zoysiagrass than other plots. Oxadiazon, DCPA, and siduron enhanced the field establishment rate where Meyer zoysiagrass was competing with high populations of smooth crabgrass." |
