Jw. Wilcut et al., WEED MANAGEMENT IN COTTON (GOSSYPIUM-HIRSUTUM) WITH SOIL-APPLIED AND POST-DIRECTED HERBICIDES, Weed technology, 11(2), 1997, pp. 221-226
Broadleaf weed and yellow nutsedge control with herbicide programs con
taining pendimethalin and combinations of fomesafen, fluometuron, and
norflurazon applied alone or with POST-directed applications of MSMA o
r fluometuron plus MSMA was evaluated. Soil-applied herbicide combinat
ions containing fomesafen controlled yellow nutsedge better than combi
nations of norflurazon and fluometuron but did not provide better enti
releaf, ivyleaf, pitted, and tall morningglory or sicklepod control. F
luometuron plus MSMA controlled morningglories and sicklepod more effe
ctively than MSMA. Seed cotton yield was greater in one of two years w
hen fomesafen was applied and was associated with better yellow nutsed
ge control.
