Abstract
Four field experiments were conducted in Louisiana and Mississippi in 2009 and 2010 to evaluate POST herbicides treatments with tembotrione applied alone or as a prepackaged mixture with thiencarbazone for weed control in corn. Treatments included tembotrione at 92 g ai ha−1, thiencarbazone : tembotrione at 15 : 76 g ai ha−1, atrazine at 2,240 g ai ha−1, glufosinate at 450 g ai ha−1, glyphosate at 860 g ae ha−1, and coapplications of tembotrione or thiencarbazone : tembotrione with atrazine, glufosinate, or glyphosate. All treatments were applied to 26-cm corn in the V4 growth stage. Treatments containing thiencarbazone : tembotrione and those with tembotrione controlled barnyardgrass, browntop millet, entireleaf morningglory, hophornbeam copperleaf, johnsongrass, Palmer amaranth, and velvetleaf 85 to 96% and 43 to 97% 28 d after treatment and at corn harvest, respectively. Corn yield ranged from 9,200 to 10,420 kg ha−1and was greater than the nontreated control following all herbicide treatments, except atrazine alone. Results indicated that thiencarbazone : tembotrione or tembotrione POST is an option for weed management in corn, and applications of thiencarbazone : tembotrione would be strongly encouraged where rhizomatous johnsongrass is problematic.
