e1“seed yield of soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.]”
e2“Yield reductions from defoliation were attributed to fewer pods per plant, while herbicide injury decreased pods per plant (1990) and weight per seed (1990 and 1991)”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Herbicide injury reduced soybean yield in 1990 and 1991.
- Intervention effect Defoliation reduced soybean yield in 1990 and 1991.
- Intervention effect Herbicide injury decreased pods per plant in soybean in 1990.
- Intervention effect Herbicide injury decreased weight per seed in soybean in 1990 and 1991.
- Intervention effect Herbicide injury and defoliation interacted to decrease soybean yield.
- Intervention effect Soybean cyst nematode stress alone never affected soybean yield.
- Intervention effect Interactions of soybean cyst nematode with herbicides and with defoliation reduced soybean yield in 1990.
- Observation No treatment effects on soybean yield were found in 1989.
- Recommendation Lower economic injury levels for green cloverworm were developed for soybean treated with acifluorfen plus bentazon.
- Recommendation Growers should consider adjusting weed and insect management strategies for soybean fields infested with soybean cyst nematode.
