Control of Imazethapyr-Resistant Common Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) in Soybean (Glycine max) and Corn (Zea mays)

Abstract
Field experiments were conducted in 1997 and 1998 near Rossville in northeast Kansas to evaluate control of imazethapyr-resistant common sunflower with selected herbicides in corn and soybean. In soybean, common sunflower control was unacceptable with imazethapyr, chlorimuron, CGA-277476, and cloransulam applied alone. Lactofen or acifluorfen applied with these herbicides slightly improved control, whereas glyphosate applied with them controlled more than 97% of common sunflower. All herbicides reduced common sunflower populations in the corn. The greatest reductions occurred when atrazine was applied with dicamba, 2,4-D, RPA 201772, or CGA-152005 plus primisulfuron. These herbicide combinations also stunted common sunflower that survived treatment. Several herbicide alternatives are available to control imazethapyr-resistant common sunflower in corn. However, glyphosate was the only herbicide that gave adequate control in soybean.
