Abstract

Research was conducted in 2007 and 2008 to evaluate weed-control options in an imazethapyr-resistant rice production system. Raised beds were formed, and imidazolinone-resistant hybrid rice ‘CL 730’ was drill-seeded on beds. Five herbicide programs applied up to the four- to six-leaf stage of rice were evaluated with and without additional “as-needed” herbicide at later stages. All the herbicide combinations and as-needed herbicides tested in this research were labeled for rice, and only minor transient injury (< 5%) was initially observed. Weeds emerged throughout the growing season, and as-needed herbicides were applied after the four- to six-leaf stage of rice to control these late-emerging weeds and weeds not effectively controlled with earlier applications, primarily Palmer amaranth. Most of the Palmer amaranth at this site was insensitive to imazethapyr (possibly acetolactate synthase resistant). Therefore, application of as-needed herbicides with different modes of action, such as 2,4-D, were used to improve Palmer amaranth control. Rice yields were often numerically higher in plots that received additional herbicide after the six-leaf stage of rice, but yields were not significantly improved.

Se llevó al cabo una investigación en 2007 y 2008 para evaluar las opciones de control de maleza en un sistema de producción de arroz resistente al imazethapyr. Se hicieron camas elevadas y en ellas se sembró a chorro corrido la semilla de arroz híbrido CL 730, resistente a las imidazolinonas. Se evaluaron cinco programas de herbicida aplicados al arroz hasta la etapa de 4 a 6 hojas con y sin herbicida adicional según la necesidad en las etapas posteriores. Todas las combinaciones de herbicida y de herbicidas adicionales según la necesidad que se evaluaron en esta investigación fueron etiquetados para usar en el arroz y solamente se observaron inicialmente daños menores pasajeros (<5%). Las malezas emergieron a lo largo de la estación de crecimiento y se aplicaron herbicidas adicionales después de la etapa de cuatro a seis hojas para controlar las malezas de emergencia tardía, así como también, las que no se controlaron efectivamente con las aplicaciones anteriores, principalmente, Amaranthus palmeri. La mayor parte de dicha maleza en este sitio fue insensible al imazethapyr (posiblemente resistente al acetolactato sintasa). Debido a esto, para mejorar el control de Amaranthus palmeri se aplicaron herbicidas adicionales según la necesidad con diferentes modos de acción, tales como el 2,4-D. Frecuentemente los rendimientos del arroz resultaron ser numéricamente más altos en las parcelas que recibieron herbicida adicional después de la etapa de seis hojas, pero los rendimientos no mejoraron significativamente.
