Abstract
In southern Chile, glyphosate is often complemented with broadleaf herbicides to improve the control of weeds like Taraxacum officinale Weber ex F. H. Wigg., Hypochaeris radicata L., Plantago lanceolata L., Raphanus raphanistrum L., Veronica persica Poiret , and Trifolium repens L. prior to sowing lupin or canola. The broadleaf herbicides may persist in the soil for unpredictable periods, depending on soil and climatic conditions. Narrow-leafed lupin ( Lupinus angustifolius ) cv. Gungurru and canola (Brassica napus) cv. Coronet were sown 1, 8, 15, and 30 days after spraying herbicides. Treatments were (A) glyphosate alone (1080 g/ha), glyphosate in tank-mixture with (B) fluroxypyr (100 g/ha), (C) 2,4-D ester (350 g/ha), and (D) metsulfuron (3 g/ha) + picloram (24 g/ha), all with 200 L/ha of water. The soil was a silty loam andisol with 15.5% organic matter and pH 5.9. The plots (RCB design with 3 replications) were maintained weed-free. Plant stand (plants per square meter) was recorded at 21 and 31 days, plant height at 31 days, and aboveground and belowground dry biomass was measured 63 days after sowing. Compared to glyphosate alone, treatments C and D significantly reduced plant height, aboveground and belowground dry biomass of lupins sown after 1 day. Only treatment D maintained that harmful effect on lupins sown 8, 15, and 30 days after herbicide spraying. Canola was less affected than lupin, but treatment D significantly reduced belowground and total dry biomass, compared to unaided glyphosate. Based on these results, the use of metsulfuron + picloram tank mixed with glyphosate in pre-seeding applications should be avoided.
