Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation Glufosinate at 430 g ae/ha caused at most 15% visible cotton injury after two or three POST applications.
- Observation Glufosinate at 860 g ae/ha caused at most 20% visible cotton injury after two or three POST applications.
- Observation Glufosinate at 550 g/ha injured cotton by up to 36%.
- Intervention effect Pyrithiobac mixed with glufosinate did not increase cotton injury relative to glufosinate alone.
- Intervention effect Glyphosate mixed with glufosinate did not increase cotton injury relative to glufosinate alone.
- Observation S-metolachlor mixed with glufosinate increased cotton injury by six to seven percentage points.
- Observation Cotton injury was undetectable 14 to 21 days after glufosinate application.
- Observation A pendimethalin, glyphosate and diuron plus MSMA program controlled 17% of glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth late in the season.
- Intervention effect Adding S-metolachlor to the first glyphosate application did not improve Palmer amaranth control.
- Intervention effect Adding pyrithiobac improved late-season Palmer amaranth control by only 13 percentage points.
- Intervention effect Replacing glyphosate with glufosinate in the program controlled Palmer amaranth by at least 90%.
- Observation Glufosinate programs controlled pitted morningglory by 99%.
- Observation Glyphosate plus pyrithiobac controlled pitted morningglory by 99%.
- Intervention effect Glufosinate systems produced at least 3.3 times the seed cotton yield of glyphosate systems.
