Effects of Several Herbicides on Broad-Leaved Weeds in Wheat Fields
In this study,the aim was to determine control effects of several herbicides on broad-leaved weeds and their selectivity to wheat in fields.A field efficacy trial was conducted where seven herbicides,cyanazine 30% SC,flumetsulam 10% SC,pyroxasulfone 40% SC,MCPA-isooctyl 86% EC+bentazon 480 g/L AS,diflufenican·florasulam 16% SC,florasulam 5% OD and fluroxypyr 28.8% EC,were sprayed to determin their control effect on broad-leaved weeds such as Galium spurium,Descurainia sophia,and Capsella bursa-pastoris.After 45 days of application,MCPA-isooctyl 86% EC+bentazon 480 g/L AS and diflufenican·florasulam 16% SC showed best control effect on total weeds,achieving fresh weight control effects of 93.05% and 95.65%,respectively.Meanwhile,cyanazine 30% SC and pyroxasulfone 40% SC assessd little control effect on total weeds,achieving fresh weight control effects of 93.05% and 95.65%,respectively.However,cyanazine 30% SC and pyroxasulfone 40% SC had excellent preemergent effects on weeds being delayed emergence,primarily Humulus scandens.Wheat injuryed caused by fluroxypyr 28.8% EC and MCPA-isooctyl 86% EC+bentazon 480 g/L AS,which may be linked to the application of difenoconazole.Other herbicides treatments have no significant adverse effects on wheat growth.In summary,control effects of these seven herbicides on broad-leaved weeds were quite different.MCPA-isooctyl 86% EC at 387.0 g/hm2+bentazon 480 g/L AS at 720 g/hm2 and diflufenican·florasulam 16% SC at 120 g/hm2 showed an excellent control effect on all weeds,and had a good application prospect in annual broad-leaved weeds control by spraying in weed pre-emergence and wheat green-up stages.
