Abstract
The efficacy of six ALS herbicides for controlling purple nutsedge in bermudagrass turf was demonstrated in five field experiments during the summer of 2004. The highest degree of nutsedge control at 95% at the end of the summer was observed after three monthly applications of trifloxysulfuron at 0.026 lb a.i./A.. Three monthly applications of halosulfuron at 0.062 lb a.i./A controlled nutsedge 88 to 90% at the end of September to early October. Imazaquin at 0.5 lb a.i./A plus MSMA at 3.0 lb a.i./A gave 91% control of nutsedge with three applications. The most rapid and efficacious nutsedge control was observed with flazasulfuron giving 91% control at 15 days after a single application. The highest degree of nutsedge control with a single application of sulfosulfuron was 91 to 96% control at 28 days after treatment. In general, ALS herbicides applied as a single application or multiple applications provided one month of effective control following a first application. After one month, the degree of control declined unless repeated applications at monthly intervals or as needed were applied for extended control. Penoxsulam at 0.12 lb a.i./A in one test gave only 70% control. MSMA at 3.0 lb a.i./A was applied four times and nutsedge control at the end of the season was 63 to 66%.
