In full-season-soybean weed management experiments, the addition of glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine], paraquat (1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium ion), or HOE-0661 [ammonium (3-amino-3-carboxypropyl)methylphosphinate] to chlorimuron [2-[[[[(4-chloro-6-methoxy-2-pyrimidinyl)amino] carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl] benzoic acid] plus linuron [N'- (3,4-dichlorophenyl)-N-methoxy-N-methyl urea] was required for effective weed control, especially of eastern black nightshade (Solanum ptycanthum Dun.). In double-crop experiments over 4 years including 10 experimental sites and 8 different weeds, chlorimuron plus linuron provided good control of vegetation at planting and residual weed control without glyphosate, paraquat, or HOE-0661.
Cyanazine [2-[[4-chloro-6-(ethylamino)-1,3,5-triazin- 2-yl]amino]-2-methylpropanenitrile] and 2,4-D [(2,4- dichlorophenoxy)acetic acid] were the most effective herbicides for horseweed (Conyza canadensis (L.)Cronq.) control prior to establishing full-season no-till soybeans (Glycine max (L.)Merr.).
In greenhouse experiments, emergence of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) seedlings was severely inhibited by all chlorimuron-containing treatments and by the highest rates of imazaquin [2-[4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid]. Growth of tobacco transplanted into a treated potting mixture was severely reduced by all rates of chlorimuron-containing herbicides, and to a lesser extent by imazaquin. Postemergence applications of chlorimuron alone or imazaquin did not significantly affect tobacco growth.
In the greenhouse, 'Vance' and 'Forrest' soybean varieties were more sensitive to chlorimuron than were 'W-20' (a sulfonylurea-resistant variety), 'Essex', or 'Hutcheson'. Herbicide injury increased with increasing soil pH. Under simulated rainfall conditions, chlorimuron movement in soil increased with increasing pH and rainfall. Soybean injury may be more directly related to chlorimuron in the soil water solution than to the amount of chlorimuron present in the soil profile.
Laboratory experiments indicated that tolerance of pitted (Ipomoea lacunosa L.) and entire leaf (Ipomoea hederacea var. integriuscula Gray) morningglories to chlorimuron may be due to reduced herbicide uptake. Sensitivity of 'Vance' soybeans may be associated with the inability to rapidly metabolize chlorimuron herbicide. / Ph. D.
