Effect of Herbicides on Ivyleaf Morningglory (Ipomoea hederacea) Interference in Soybean (Glycine max)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Ivyleaf morningglory weed-free period, weedy period, and density studies were conducted in 1993 and 1994 to determine the effects of soil-applied imazaquin and chlorimuron plus metribuzin on ivyleaf morningglory interference in soybean. A weed-free period of 4 wk was needed to maintain soybean yield equivalent to weed-free season long when herbicides were not used, but treatment with either chlorimuron plus metribuzin or imazaquin maintained yield comparable to weed-free at all intervals. Ivyleaf morningglory biomass was reduced by both herbicides across all weed-free periods. The period nontreated ivyleaf morningglory plants were tolerated without yield loss was only 2 wk, but this interval was extended to 8 wk after treatment with chlorimuron plus metribuzin or imazaquin. Without herbicides, soybean yield was reduced by four ivyleaf morningglory per m of row, but the highest population evaluated in this study (eight per m of row) did not reduce soybean yield after treatment with chlorimuron plus metribuzin or imazaquin. Ivyleaf morningglory biomass was reduced at all densities after treatment with either herbicide.
