Abstract

This research was designed to determine if sethoxydim-resistant corn hybrids exhibited levels of cross-resistance to other acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase)-inhibiting herbicides. Three sethoxydim-resistant hybrids were tested in 1995 and four in 1996. The hybrids were treated with the 1 × (labeled use rate for annual grass control) and 4 × rate of clethodim, fenoxaprop-P plus fluazifop-P, fluazifop-P, quizalofop-P, and sethoxydim. At the 1 × rate, similar levels of corn safety were observed in both years with sethoxydim, quizalofop-P (except Asgrow RX620SR in 1995), and in 1996, fenoxaprop-P plus fluazifop-P. Corn treated with the 4 × rate of sethoxydim did not exhibit injury, while all other ACCase-inhibiting herbicides cause > 50% corn injury. Sethoxydim-resistant com hybrids used in this study did not consistently exhibit acceptable levels of cross-resistance to other ACCase-inhibiting herbicides. The use of clethodim will control volunteer sethoxydim-resistant corn in rotational crops.
