Integrated Strategies For Controlling Warm-Season Turfgrass Weeds, Matthew Thomas Elmore

Masters Theses

Herbicidal inhibitors of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) such as mesotrione, topramezone and tembotrione were evaluated in greenhouse experiments for activity against bermudagrass. While topramezone and tembotrione exhibited greater activity than mesotrione, none of these herbicides provided acceptable bermudagrass control. These herbicides reduced leaf tissue chlorophyll and carotenoid pigment concentrations in bermudagrass. Changes in turfgrass pigmentation were quantified using HPLC analogy as well as evaluations of visual bleaching and measurements of chlorophyll fluorescence yield (F_v/F_m). Results indicated that these more expeditious methods of evaluating HPPD-inhibiting herbicide activity (visual evaluations and F_v/F_m) cannot be used …

W068 Pigweeds In Tennessee, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service

Field & Commercial Crops

Amaranthus is the genus for the pigweed family. The word is derived from the Greek word amarantus, which means “everlasting.” Most growers would agree that this is a very accurate description for the pigweeds. In Tennessee, over the last decade, pigweeds have become a major weed pest in row crops and pastures.

Pb1728-Weed Management In Annuals, Perennials And Herbaceous Ground Covers: Nursery Production And Professional Landscape Maintenance, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service

Commercial Horticulture

Controlling weeds in production or landscape areas can be a burdensome task. The objective of an effective and effi cient weed management program is to achieve the desired level of weed control at an acceptable expense (cost). Labor is very expensive and sometimes unavailable, and may require training and supervision. Management must avoid the laborious task of physically removing weeds whenever possible.

This objective is best achieved by an integration of cultural practices focused on minimizing the introduction of weed seed, followed by preemergence and postemergence herbicides (refer to page 10, Herbicide Types) applied correctly at the optimum time to …

Pb1783 Site Preparation And Competition Control Guidelines For Hardwood Tree Plantings, The University Of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service

Forestry, Trees, and Timber

Establishing a successful hardwood planting requires attention to several key elements, including proper species selection, seedling quality, proper planting technique, and short- and long-term control of competing vegetation. This publication addresses these aspects of successful hardwood plantation establishment and maintenance, with special emphasis on controlling competing vegetation. The latter is best achieved through the combined effects of proper tree density management, proper use of groundcovers and pro-active herbicide prescriptions.

Unfortunately, controlling weeds, particularly broadleaf weeds, in hardwood plantings is difficult once weeds become established. Preventing weed problems before they occur is the key to successful competition control. The use of …
