e0“Sweetpotato crop injury due to treatment was minimal (< 3%), and sweetpotato storage root length to width ratio was similar for all treatments in 2007 (2.5 for Beauregard) and 2008 (2.4 and 1.9 for Beauregard and Covington, respectively).”

Other claims from this paper (13)
- Intervention effect Sequential flumioxazin and S-metolachlor immediately after transplanting gave over 90% season-long Palmer amaranth control.
- Intervention effect S-metolachlor alone immediately after transplanting gave 80 to 93% weed control in 2007.
- Intervention effect S-metolachlor alone immediately after transplanting gave 92 to 96% weed control in 2008.
- Intervention effect Flumioxazin followed by S-metolachlor at 2 WAP gave 90% control in 2007.
- Intervention effect Flumioxazin followed by S-metolachlor at 2 WAP gave 38 to 79% control in 2008.
- Intervention effect S-metolachlor alone at 2 WAP did not provide acceptable weed control.
- Intervention effect Weed control was similar across S-metolachlor rates.
- Intervention effect In 2008, flumioxazin at 109 g ha−1 gave greater weed control than 91 g ha−1.
- Intervention effect Herbicide treatment caused minimal sweetpotato injury below 3%.
- Intervention effect Storage root length-to-width ratio for Beauregard was 2.5 in 2007, similar across treatments.
- Intervention effect Storage root length-to-width ratio for Covington was 1.9 in 2008, similar across treatments.
- Association Sweetpotato yield was directly related to Palmer amaranth control.
- Recommendation The authors recommend pretransplant flumioxazin followed by posttransplant S-metolachlor for Palmer amaranth control in sweetpotato.
