Field experiments were conducted at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster, OH in 2002 and 2004 to evaluate the tolerance of tomato varieties to halosulfuron-methyl, a selective herbicide used for POST control of broadleaf weeds and nutsedge (Cyperus). POST herbicide treatments included halosulfuron-methyl at 0, 34.7 and 70 gaiha−1. Plots were evaluated at 1, 3, and 6 wk after treatment (WAT), and yield was recorded at the end of the season. Minimal crop injury was observed 1 and 3 WAT in plots treated with both halosulfuron-methyl rates only in 2002. Although the crop recovered from herbicide injury when treated with the lower rate at 6 WAT, ‘Ohio 8245’, ‘M82’, and ‘E6203’ showed injury at this interval when treated with halosulfuron-methyl at 70 g ha−1. No injury was observed with either rates in 2004. No significant yield reduction was observed in any of the varieties in the test plots. These results indicate that differential tolerance to halosulfuron-methyl does not exists among these tomato varieties with the exception of E6203 and M82.

Significant Injury

Field experiments were conducted at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster, OH, in 2005, 2006, and 2007 to evaluate the tolerance of eight tomato varieties to thifensulfuron-methyl and POST control of broadleaf weeds. Herbicide treatments included thifensulfuron-methyl at 0, 6, and 12 g ai ha−1. In 2005, significant injury was observed in variety TR122244 at 1 and 3 wk after treatment (WAT). The highest crop injury in 2005 was 38% at 1 WAT for variety TR122244. However, this variety experienced a conflicting effect on crop marketable yield when treated with the low and high rates of thifensulfuron-methyl in 2005. Variety TR122244 had the highest crop injury, yet produced the highest marketable yield when treated with either rate of thifensulfuron-methyl. At 3 WAT in 2005, significant injury occurred in variety 11111120, with 13% injury recorded for both the high and low rates of thifensulfuron-methyl. No significant injury resulted from either rate of thifensulfuron-methyl at 1, 3, or 6 WAT in 2006 or 2007. However, in 2006 a significant marketable yield reduction was observed for variety 97045116 when treated with the high rate of thifensulfuron-methyl. No varieties experienced significant marketable yield effects or injury when treated with either rate of thifensulfuron-methyl in 2007. Registration of thifensulfuron-methyl herbicide is not recommended at this time because of the potential for crop stunting and yield reduction in certain tomato varieties.

Bacterial wilt (BW), caused by Pseudomonas solanacearum E.F. Smith, is one of the most destructive disease of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) in the tropics. Twenty tomato lines/accessions previously identified as BW-resistant were evaluated for BW reaction in fields providing high disease pressure at Subang, Indonesia; Los Baños, Philippines; Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (MARDI), Kuala Lumpur; Asian Vegetable Research and Development Center (AVRDC), Taiwan; and Taiwan Seed Improvement and Propagation Service (TSIPS). Entries also were tested in the greenhouse at the AVRDC with a P. solanacearum strain from Taiwan (Pss4) using a drench inoculation method. Objectives of the study were to identify stable sources of BW resistance for southeast Asian tomato breeding programs, and to determine the correlation between field and greenhouse reactions. Mean entry survival was 21.6% at Subang, 31.9% at Los Baños, 76.7% at the AVRDC, 93.6% at Malaysia, and 93.3% at TSIPS, indicating that most entries were resistant at MARDI and the Taiwan locations but susceptible at Subang and Los Baños. L285 (mean survival = 83.8%) and CRA 84-58-1 (mean survival = 79.4%) were the most resistant entries in the field trials. Mean survival (70.1%) of CRA 66-derived entries was significantly better than the mean of entries with resistance derived from UPCA 1169 or UPCA 1169 plus `Venus' or `Saturn'. Mean survival of AVRDC entries bred in the 1980s (59.4%) was significantly greater than mean survival of AVRDC lines bred in the 1970s (45.7%). The correlation between entry BW percent survival averaged over the five field trials and entry means from drench inoculation in the greenhouse was highly significant (r = 0.70), suggesting that the drench inoculation method is effective in selection for BW resistance.

Two field experiments, both with Cubanelle and Yollow Wonder peppers (Capsicum annuum L.), were conducted at the Juana Díaz Research and Development Center in 1981-82. Weeds were induced to grow through periodic irrigations for 16 days before peppers were transplanted. Either glyphosate or paraquat at 1.12 kg ai/ha were then applied to control emerging weeds in two separate experimental areas 5 days before setting out transplants. Oxyfluorfen at 1.12 kg ai/ha applied 2 days before transplanting peppers caused the highest phytotoxicity (significant at P=0.05) as recorded during 14, 28 and 42 days after treatment in both experiments. Neither alachlor (1.68 kg ai/ha), oxadiazon, trifluralin nor pendimethalin applied 2 days before transplanting at 1.12 kg ai/ha was phytotoxic to peppers. There were no significant differences in Cubanelle or Yollow Wonder pepper yields among herbicide treatments and handweeded check. The highest pepper yields (47,771 and 44,964 kg/ha) were obtained in plots treated initially with glyphosate and later by either paraquat directed postemergence spray or oxadiazon pre-transplant at 1.12 kg ai/ha each, respectively. In the other experiment, hand-weeded check and preplant application of paraquat at 1.12 followed by oxyfluorfen at 1.12 kg ai/ha were the highest yielders with 47,771 and 44, 964 kg/ha, respectively.

A study on nutrient uptake (N, P, K, Ca and Mg) by peppers (var. Cubanelle) and fertilizer solute movement in relation to dripper location was conducted in the semiarid southern coast of Puerto Rico at the Fortuna Agricultural Research and Development Center. Soil samples were taken 9, 64, and 118 days after transplanting from each location, with three 15-cm depth increments and three 15-cm horizontal increments away from the dripper. These samples were analyzed for pH, EC, P, K, Ca, and Mg. All fertilizer was applied via drip irrigation. Factorial analysis indicated that solute movements at different positions were not statistically different. The relationships between nutrient uptake versus days after transplanting were of Mitscherlich's curve type. Greatest amount of nutrient uptake occurred during the last third part of the growing season, and followed an order of K > N > Ca > P > Mg.

Abstract The study was conducted on a research lawn at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, Wooster, Ohio. Insecticides were applied 21 Aug to plots 10 X 10 ft arranged in a RCB replicated four times. Liquid treatments were applied with a CO2 sprayer and Teejet™ 8010VS nozzles at 35 psi pressure that delivered a volume of 3 gal/1000 ft2. The granular treatments were applied with a shaker jar. After all treatments were applied, the area was irrigated with approximately ‘A inch of water bul received no further supplemental irrigation. Environmental conditions at the time of treatment were as follows: NMC—approximately 17/ft2, 100% second instars; turf—level, dry, 2½ inches ht, 60% Kentucky bluegrass and 30% annual bluegrass, 10% weed species, no thatch; soil—moist, 79°F at 1 inch and 77°F at 3 inches deep; weather—mostly sunny, 80°F, 0-5 mph wind. Evaluation on 1 Oct involved counting the number of live NMC and JB larvae in each of six 7X7 inch areas per plot. Analysis of variance was done on plot totals and means were separated by LSD test at P = 0.05.

Herbage and crude protein yields of 8 non-hardy alfalfa (Medicago sativa) cultivars under irrigation were evaluated at the Fortuna Agricultural Research and Development Center during 1980-1981. First year yields were excellent and ranged from 26,453 to 32,660 kg/ha in 343 days. The best performance (yield and persistence) was obtained with Hayden PX-1, Florida 66, Mesa Sirsa, and UC-163. Yields were highest during the months of April, May, and June, and lowest during August. In 1981, yields were lower and ranged from 13,060 to 19,534 kg/ha in 218 days. The cultivars with the highest forage and crude protein yields during the 10 cuttings in 1980, were also highest during the 7 cuttings in 1981. After 17 cuttings, the persistence of Mesa Sirsa, Florida 66, Tanhuato, Hayden PX-1, and UC-163 was 87, 85, 77, 76, and 65%, respectively. Mean crude protein, phosphorus, potassium, calcium, and magnesium contents for the 1980 cuttings were 21.5, 0.37, 3.44, 1.47, and 0.29%, respectively; for the 1981 cuttings, mean crude protein, phosphorus, and potassium contents were 23.2, 0.35, and 3. 11%, respectively.

Tomato rootstocks have been successfully used for eggplant production. However, the safety of herbicides registered in tomato has not been tested on grafted eggplant, which is a combination of tomato rootstock and eggplant scion. Greenhouse and field experiments were conducted to determine response of grafted eggplant on tomato rootstock to napropamide, metribuzin, halosulfuron, trifluralin,S-metolachlor, and fomesafen herbicides. In greenhouse experiments, herbicide treatments included pretransplantS-metolachlor (400 and 800 g ai ha−1), pre- or posttransplant metribuzin (140 and 280 g ai ha−1), and posttransplant halosulfuron (18 and 36 g ai ha−1). In field experiments, herbicide treatments included pretransplant fomesafen (280 and 420 g ai ha−1), halosulfuron (39 and 52 g ha−1), metribuzin (280 and 550 g ha−1), napropamide (1,120 and 2,240 g ai ha−1),S-metolachlor (800 and 1,060 g ha−1), and trifluralin (560 and 840 g ai ha−1). The eggplant cultivar ‘Santana' was used as the scion and nongrafted control, and two hybrid tomatoes ‘RST-04−106-T' and ‘Maxifort' were used as rootstocks for grafted plants. In both greenhouse and field experiments, there was no difference between grafted and nongrafted eggplant in terms of injury caused by herbicides. Metribuzin posttransplant at 140 and 280 g ha−1caused 94 and 100% injury to grafted and nongrafted eggplant 4 wk after treatment. In field experiments, pretransplant fomesafen, napropamide,S-metolachlor, and trifluralin caused less than 10% injury and no yield reduction in grafted and nongrafted eggplant. However, metribuzin caused injury and yield reduction in both grafted and nongrafted eggplant. Metribuzin at 550 g ha−1caused 60 and 81% plant stand loss in 2013 and 2014, respectively. Halosulfuron reduced yield 24% in both grafted and nongrafted eggplant compared to nontreated control in 2013 but did not reduce yield in 2014. The pretransplantS-metolachlor, napropamide, fomesafen, and trifluralin are safe to use on eggplant grafted onto tomato rootstock, and will be a valuable addition to the toolkit of eggplant growers.

Herbicide Drift

A field experiment was conducted in 2017 and 2018 to evaluate the sensitivity and recovery of grain sorghum to the simulated drift of glufosinate, glyphosate, and paraquat at two application timings (V6 and flag leaf growth stage). Paraquat drift caused maximum injury to sorghum plants in both years, whereas the lowest injury was caused by glyphosate in 2017. Averaged over all herbicide treatments, injury to grain sorghum from the simulated herbicide drift was 5% greater when herbicides were applied at flag leaf stage, as compared to herbicide applications at the six-leaf stage in 2017. In 2018, injury from glyphosate drift was higher when applied at the six-leaf stage than at the flag leaf stage. Paraquat and glufosinate drift caused more injury when applied at flag leaf stage than at six-leaf stage at 14 days after application in 2018. About 21% to 29% of injury from the simulated drift of paraquat led to a 31% reduction in grain sorghum yield, as compared to a nontreated check in 2017. The simulated drift of glyphosate and glufosinate did not result in any significant yield reduction compared to the nontreated check in 2017, possibly due to the recovery of sorghum plants after herbicides’ drift application.
