Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Saflufenacil combinations controlled blue mustard at least 91%, versus at most 50% with 2,4-D amine alone.
- Observation At least 25 g ha −1 saflufenacil EC was needed for more than 90% flixweed control.
- Intervention effect Removing COC reduced flixweed control more for WG than EC saflufenacil.
- Observation Most saflufenacil treatments controlled henbit at no more than 80%, judged unsatisfactory.
- Association Wheat foliar necrosis rose with saflufenacil rate to 30% early after treatment.
- Observation Wheat foliar necrosis later declined below 15%.
- Observation Wheat foliar necrosis was absent by 30 DAT.
- Association Saflufenacil rate, formulation, and 2,4-D mixing influenced wheat stunting less than foliar necrosis.
- Intervention effect EC caused greater wheat foliar necrosis than WG.
- Intervention effect Mixing saflufenacil with 2,4-D amine without COC reduced leaf necrosis and stunting.
- Intervention effect Most saflufenacil treatments had grain yields similar to 2,4-D amine in weedy conditions.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatment did not affect grain yield in weed-free experiments.
- Recommendation The authors identify two saflufenacil regimens as controlling winter annual broadleaf weeds with less than 15% injury and no yield reduction.
- Recommendation The authors propose postemergence saflufenacil as another weed-control tool for wheat growers.
