Mesotrione Combinations with Atrazine and Bentazon for Yellow and Purple Nutsedge (Cyperus EsculentusandC. Rotundus) Control in Corn

Abstract: Field and greenhouse studies were conducted to evaluate mesotrione alone and in combinations with low rates of atrazine and bentazon for control of yellow and purple nutsedge. Mesotrione alone at rates of 105 to 210 g ai/ha controlled yellow nutsedge 43 to 70%. Mixtures of mesotrione with atrazine at 280 g ai/ha did not always improve yellow nutsedge control over that by mesotrione alone, but increasing atrazine to 560 g ai/ha in these mixtures generally provided more consistent control of yellow nutsedge.

“…Mesotrione, an HPPD-inhibitor, plus bentazon in mixture improved the control of yellow nutsedge over either herbicide applied alone; however, the control achieved was not considered commercially acceptable (Armel et al, 2008). Mesotrione has shown better control of purple (Cyperus rotundus) and yellow nutsedge (C. esculentus) when applied in combination with bentazon than with atrazine (both PSII inhibitors) (Armel et al, 2008). In another study, the tank mixture of atrazine plus tembotrione in sweet corn showed higher and more consistent weed control than tembotrione applied alone (Williams et al, 2011).…”

“…Bentazon belongs to inhibitors of photosystem II (PSII) and is used for postemergence control of broadleaf weeds and sedges. It has been used in tank mixtures with HPPD herbicides to increase weed control (Armel et al, 2008;Walsh et al, 2012). Both PSII and HPPD inhibitors cause inhibition of electron transfer between the plant photosystems, resulting in oxidative stress and reactive oxygen radicals that damage cellular constituents (Choe et al, 2014).…”

“…sativus Boeckeler. Recent field and glasshouse studies with different herbicides such as glyphosate (Felix et al ., ), glyphosate plus acetolactate synthase (ALS)‐inhibiting herbicides (Nelson & Renner, ), mesotrione (McCurdy et al ., ) and combinations such as mesotrione with atrazine and bentazon (Armel et al ., ) have led to insights into herbicidal response regarding regrowth and tuber production. However, systematic comparison of herbicide sensitivity profiles between different biotypes has not been made, even after Pereira et al .…”

“…In fact, the symptoms produced with these CBI plus PSII mixtures changes from the slow bleaching or chlorotic symptoms normally associated with most CBI or PSII inhibitor applied alone to a rapid necrosis that appears on leaves within 1 to 2 days after application. The level of synergistic herbicidal response ob-served with these CBI plus PSII inhibitor mixtures is often dependent on the ratio of herbicide application rates and the inherent level of sensitivity among various weeds to both the CBI and PSII inhibitors applied alone [4,6,9]. It was originally believed that this synergistic response between CBI and PSII inhibitors was mostly attributed to carotenoid inhibitors that target p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), whereby the inhibition of this enzyme prevents the conversion of the amino acid tyrosine to homogentisate which is further converted to either the co-factor plastoquinone or the antioxidant -tocopherol.…”
