Abstract
Abstract Vegetative and fruiting responses of peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch cv. June Gold] treated 3 years with glyphosate [N-(phosophonemethyl)glycine], applied at 2.2 and 4.4 kg/ha singly or in combination with 2.2 kg ai/ha simazine [2-chloro-4,6-bis(ethylamino)-s-triazine] or oryzalin [3,5-dinitro-N4,N4-dipropylsulfanilamide], and a treatment of 0.6 kg ai/ha paraquat (1-1’-dimethyl-4,4’-bipyridinium ion) plus simazine or oryzalin were compared to trees in a hand cultivated control. Herbicide treatments resulted in increased trunk diameters and fruit set while glyphosate combinations resulted in improved yields.
