Effects of Chlorimuron on Soybean (Glycine max) and Sicklepod (Cassia obtusifolia) as Influenced by Application Timing
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
The effects of chlorimuron as related to application timing were evaluated on sicklepod and soybean in the glasshouse. Plants were sprayed with chlorimuron at 8.8 g ai ha–1 at 14, 21, 28, and 35 days after planting (DAP). Early (14 DAP) chlorimuron application reduced sicklepod dry weight, leaf area, and water use to levels significantly less than those of plants treated at 28 and 35 DAP. Soybean dry weight and leaf area were not affected by chlorimuron. However, soybean water use was initially reduced at application timings of 28 DAP or earlier but recovered by 4 weeks after treatment (WAT). Sicklepod net assimilation rate (NAR) and relative growth rate (RGR) were reduced by chlorimuron regardless of application timing while soybean was not affected.
