Abstract

Viable cutleaf groundcherry (Physalis angulata L. var. angulata) seed were produced 4 weeks after flowering began. Constant temperatures of 10 and 40 C totally inhibited germination. Varying photoperiods had no effect on the germination. Seedling emergence decreased (89% to 0%) as planting depth increased (0 to 10 cm). Greater than 97% preemergence control of cutleaf groundcherry was obtained with metribuzin [4-amino-6-tert-butyl-3-(methylthio)-as-triazin-5(4H)-one], linuron [3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1-methoxy-1-methylurea], alachlor [2-chloro-2′,6′-diethyl-N-(methoxymethyl)acetanilide], oxadiazon [2-tert-butyl-4-(2,4-dichloro-5-isopropoxyphenyl)-δ2 -1,3,4-oxadiazolin-5-one], oxyfluorfen [2-chloro-1-(3-ethoxy-4-nitrophenoxy)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene], and bifenox [methyl 5-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)-2-nitrobenzoate]. Postemergence applications of dinoseb (2-sec-butyl-4,6-dinitrophenol), chloroxuron {3-[p-(p-chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,1-dimethylurea}, naptalam (N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid) plus dinoseb, oxyfluorfen, and acifluorfen {sodium 5-[2-chloro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenoxy]-2-nitrobenzoate} linuron plus 2,4-DB [4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)butyric acid], metribuzin plus 2,4-DB, and bifenox resulted in 96 to 100% control of cutleaf groundcherry. When confined to the soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] drill, no significant reductions in soybean leaf area index (LAI), plant height, dry weight accumulation, crop growth rate (CGR), or seed yield were obtained from cutleaf groundcherry competition at densities as high as 60 plants/m of row. Presently, cutleaf groundcherry does not appear to be a major weed problem in soybean production.
