During the registration process for evaluating aquatic herbicides, it is important to determine both the efficacy on target vegetation as well as the potential impacts on non-target vegetation. Herbicide applications for submersed weeds can negatively impact some non-target emergent species. Factors such as the plant species and growth stage, and the herbicide treatment rates and exposure time can often dictate the selective potential of an aquatic herbicide. There are currently ...
This technical note describes the results of multiple growth chamber studies conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of three ALS-inhibiting herbicides (penoxsulam, imazamox, and bispyribac-sodium) and a fungal pathogen applied alone and in combination with one another, as a potential method for controlling the nuisance submersed plant, hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata (L.f.) Royle).
This technical note describes the results of a laboratory investigation conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the herbicide diquat (6,7-dihydrodipyrido[1,2-a:2',1'-c]pyrazinediium), and the fungal pathogen Mycoleptodiscus terrestris (Gerd.) Ostazeski, applied alone and in combination with one another, as an integrated weed management strategy against the nuisance aquatic plant, hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata (L.f.) Royle).
