Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Napropamide caused transient foliar injury on strawberry mother plants.
- Intervention effect Napropamide suppressed new growth of strawberry daughter plants at 4 weeks after treatment, reducing daughter-plant biomass by 59–68%.
- Intervention effect Napropamide eliminated the pull force required for removal of daughter plants relative to the nontreated control.
- Intervention effect Napropamide reduced aboveground biomass by up to 49% relative to the nontreated control.
- Intervention effect Napropamide reduced belowground biomass by more than 95% relative to the nontreated control.
- Intervention effect By 8 weeks after treatment only the broadcast napropamide treatment consistently maintained inhibition of daughter plant rooting.
- Intervention effect Pendimethalin had no effects on strawberry mother plants or daughter plants under any application method.
- Intervention effect Pendimethalin failed to inhibit daughter plant rooting entirely.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that napropamide applied to the row middles, the only label-compliant method evaluated, can effectively suppress daughter plant rooting for at least one month.
