Several experiments were conducted to determine the influence of temperature, relative humidity, leaf age, and additives on14C-bentazon [3-isopropyl-1H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-(4)3H-one 2,2-dioxide] uptake and translocation by redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.), wild mustard [Brassica kaber(DC.) L.C. Wheeler var.pinnatifida(Stokes) L.C. Wheeler] and soybeans (Glycine maxL. Merr. ‘Corsoy’). A water soluble linseed oil formulation enhanced absorption and translocation of the14C-label by redroot pigweed more than did emulsifiable linseed oil, petroleum oil, or a surfactant. The oil additives reduced the14C-label washed from the treated area of a leaf and increased absorption and translocation compared to bentazon applied alone. Low relative humidity and older leaves of redroot pigweed resulted in less14C-bentazon absorption than with high relative humidity or younger leaves. The addition of emulsifiable linseed oil reduced the influence of low relative humidity and leaf age upon14C-bentazon absorption. Comparative absorption and translocation of14C-bentazon was wild mustard > redroot pigweed > soybeans. Uptake and translocation of14C-bentazon by redroot pigweed was greater at 30 C than at 10 C.

A water-soluble linseed oil formulation was compared with emulsifiable linseed oil as an additive to bentazon [3-isopropyl-1H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-(4)3H-one 2,2-dioxide] for redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.) control. A water-soluble linseed oil formulation as an additive to bentazon controlled redroot pigweed better than did an emulsifiable linseed oil additive. Further, the water-soluble linseed oil additive enhanced redroot pigweed control with bentazon more than the emulsifiable linseed oil when a simulated rainfall followed application, or when humidity was low (30 to 45%) or spray volume high (170 to 340 L/ha). Redroot pigweed control with bentazon plus the water-soluble linseed oil additive followed by simulated rainfall in 4 h was similar to control with bentazon applied alone without a simulated rainfall.

Experiments were conducted in the growth chamber and greenhouse to determine the influence of humidity, temperature, simulated rainfall, and oil additives with bentazon [3-isopropyl-1H-2,1,3-benzothiadiazin-(4) 3H-one 2,2-dioxide] upon redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.) control. Generally, bentazon gave increased redroot pigweed control with high rather than low humidity. However, the increased weed control with high humidity was greater at 10 C than at 20 or 30 C. A simulated rainfall within 24 hr after bentazon application reduced redroot pigweed control. A simulated rainfall of 650 L/ha within 1.5 hr after bentazon application increased control of redroot pigweed, while more than 1300 L/ha simulated rainfall decreased redroot pigweed control. Emulsifiable linseed oil and petroleum oil additives to the spray reduced the detrimental effect of low humidity and simulated rainfall upon redroot pigweed control with bentazon. Emulsifiable linseed oil was more effective than petroleum oil in reducing the detrimental effect of low humidity and of simulated rainfall. However, emulsifiable linseed oil reduced the redroot pigweed control with bentazon with high humidity at 30 C compared to bentazon applied alone or with petroleum oil.

Weed control and sugarbeet (Beta vulgarisL.) injury from applications of methylm-hydroxycarbanilatem-methyl-carbanilate (phenmedipham) were influenced by additives, volume of additive, and species in both field and greenhouse experiments. Oils were more effective than the surfactant as additives to phenmedipham on green foxtail (Setaria virdis(L.) Beauv.), yellow foxtail (Setaria glauca(L.) Beauv.), redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.), or common lambsquarters (Chenopodium albumL.). Herbicidal activity of phenmedipham on kochia (Kochia scoparia(L.) Schrad.) or wild mustard (Brassica kaber(D.C.) L.C. Wheeler var.pinnatifida(Stokes) L.C. Wheeler) was not enhanced by any additive. Linseed oil (2.34 L/ha) enhanced the herbicidal activity of phenmedipham on green foxtail, yellow foxtail, and redroot pigweed more than petroleum (2.34 L/ha) or sunflower (Helianthus annusL.) oil (2.34 or 9.35 L/ha). However, linseed oil reduced the herbicidal activity of phenmedipham on kochia.

Experiments in controlled-environment chambers indicated that high temperature, 30 C, increased the phytotoxicity of bromoxynil (3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile) to wild mustard (Sinapis arvensisL. # SINAR) and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL. # AMARE) compared to low temperature, 10 C, during and after treatment. Bromoxynil phytotoxicity generally was higher at relative humidities of 90 to 95% compared to 40 to 60%, but relative humidity had less influence on bromoxynil phytotoxicity than did temperature. A simulated rain immediately after bromoxynil treatment reduced control of both species, but the reduction was of no practical importance for wild mustard. The data indicate that wild mustard and redroot pigweed control would be reduced by bromoxynil application during a period of low temperatures or to plants in advanced growth stages.

The selectivity of 2,4-dichlorophenylp-nitrophenyl ether (nitrofen) among rape (Brassica campestrisL., var. Echo) and two weed species, redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.) and green foxtail (Setaria viridis(L.) Beauv.), was determined quantitatively by a replicated dosage-response experiment. On an ED50basis, green foxtail and redroot pigweed were, respectively, 5.8 and 63.3 times more susceptible than rape. Selectivity was divided into three parameters; viz., differential spray retention, differential penetration, and differential effects within the plant. Differences in retention were measured with the use of a water-soluble dye, while differences in penetration were determined with14C-labelled nitrofen. Spray retention on green foxtail was 66% of that on the rape and 64% as much nitrofen penetrated redroot pigweed as penetrated rape. Under the conditions of these tests it was estimated that green foxtail and redroot pigweed were, respectively, 9 and 99 times more susceptible to nitrofen than was rape.

Site Of Absorption

The basis for selectivity of phenmedipham (methyl-m-hydroxycarbanilatem-methylcarbanilate) and desmedipham (ethylm-hydroxycarbanilate carbanilate) on wild mustard [Brassica kaber(DC.) L.C. Wheeler ‘pinnatifida’ (Stokes) L.C. Wheeler], redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.), and sugar beet (Beta vulgarisL.) was studied by evaluating spray retention, absorption, translocation, and metabolism. Total photosynthesis in wild mustard was severely inhibited in less than 5 hr after foliar application of either herbicide and did not recover. Total photosynthesis in sugar beet was slightly inhibited but recovered after 24 hr. Photosynthesis in redroot pigweed recovered from a treatment of phenmedipham but did not recover when treated with desmedipham. Differences in spray retention or foliar absorption did not explain selectivity. Within 5 hr after herbicide application, redroot pigweed had translocated more desmedipham than phenmedipham from the site of absorption and had metabolized a large amount of the phenmedipham but little desmedipham. The key factor explaining selectivity appeared to be at the initial detoxication reaction of the parent compound.

Photosynthesis And Respiration

Absorption, translocation, and metabolism of foliar-applied ethofumesate [(±)-2-ethoxy-2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-5-benzofuranyl methanesulphonate] were studied to explain field observations showing differences in susceptibility among sugarbeet (Beta vulgarisL.), common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifoliaL.), redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL.), and common lambsquarters (Chenopodium albumL.). In laboratory studies, two- to four-leaf seedlings of the highly susceptible species, redroot pigweed and common lambsquarter, absorbed greater amounts of14C-ethofumesate from foliar application than the moderately susceptible common ragweed and tolerant sugarbeet. Sugarbeet translocated very little14C from treated foliage to untreated plant tissue. All weed species translocated14C-ethofumesate to untreated leaf tissue when14C-ethofumesate was applied to seedlings at the two-leaf stage. Ethofumesate was translocated basipetally to the stem and root of two-leaf redroot pigweed and common lambsquarter seedlings. A high percentage of the14C was found in the water-soluble fraction in sugarbeet seedlings, indicating inactivation. The amount of metabolites recovered in the non-polar fraction depended on the stage of plant growth. Total photosynthesis and respiration in redroot pigweed was inhibited 4 h after foliar application and did not recover after 96 h. Uptake and evolution of CO2were also inhibited in sugarbeet leaves, but they recovered rapidly, depending on age of plant at treatment. The stage of plant development was the key factor determining species response to foliar treatments of ethofumesate in terms of absorption, metabolism, and total photosynthesis and respiration.

Nitrate reduction on a leaf fresh weight basis was measured in common lambsquarters (Chenopodium album L.) and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.) in individual leaves as a function of the photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) under which the plants were grown. Common lambsquarters had greater rates of nitrate reduction than did redroot pigweed regardless of leaf age or PPFD and responded to a significantly greater degree when PPFD was increased, with a proportionately greater increase in nitrate reduction among younger leaves.

Leaf Necrosis

Desmedipham [ethylm-hydroxycarbanilate carbanilate(ester)] controlled wild mustard (Sinapsis arvensisL. ♯3SINAR) and redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL. ♯ AMARE) more effectively than phenmedipham (methylm-hydroxycarbanilatem-methylcarbanilate). A synergistic interaction occurred with all tank-mix combinations of the two herbicides for wild mustard control, except combinations containing 0.71 kg ai/ha of desmedipham. The magnitude of the synergism decreased as the rate of desmedipham was increased and increased as the rate of phenmedipham increased. Both herbicides caused injury symptoms of leaf necrosis and height reduction to sunflowers (Helianthus annuusL.). Crop injury and sunflower heights were affected more by desmedipham than by phenmedipham. Injury effects were temporary and had no influence on sunflower yields.

Reduced Toxicity

The effect of rainfall on the performance of a tank mixture of desmedipham [ethylm-hydroxycarbanilate carbanilate(ester)] and phenmedipham (methylm-hydroxycarbanilatem-methylcarbanilate) applied postemergence to redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexusL. ♯ AMARE), wild mustard (Sinapsis arvensisL. ♯ SINAR) and sunflower (Helianthus annuusL.) was evaluated in field studies. The occurrence of 1 mm of rain immediately after herbicide application significantly decreased the control of redroot pigweed and wild mustard. A rainfall quantity of 1 mm also reduced injury symptoms on sunflower. Simulating a 12.7-mm rain less than 18 h after desmedipham and phenmedipham application effectively reduced toxicity to redroot pigweed and sunflower. Toxicity to these two species increased at a lesser rate than for wild mustard as the time interval prior to rain was increased. A rain-free period of 6 h was predicted for near-maximum control of wild mustard with these herbicides.
