Identifying herbicides to manage weeds in a buckwheat cover crop and for the control of volunteers
Abstract Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) is a fast‐growing plant that quickly produces a dense groundcover. The utilization of buckwheat as a cover crop in vegetable production could be beneficial to Georgia producers, however for successful adoption, weed control in the cover crop coupled with control of buckwheat volunteers must be achievable.

Reduced‐lignin alfalfa production in the water‐limited environments of the US Central Great Plains
Abstract Previous studies indicate reduced‐lignin (RL) alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) cultivars as a more digestible livestock feed option with minimal reductions in biomass than conventional alfalfa cultivars at the same growth stage, allowing for harvest flexibility. However, these findings are derived from environments with adequate moisture. Thus, RL

Weed Control in Corn (Zea mays L.) as Influenced by Preemergence Herbicides
Field studies were conducted in central and south-central Texas from 2013 through 2015 to evaluate crop tolerance and efficacy of various preemergence herbicides alone and in combination for weed control in field corn. Acetochlor and pendimethalin alone,

Evaluating precision sprayers for targeted weed management in corn and soybean
Abstract A targeted application of herbicides in commercial crop fields is desirable for reducing chemical inputs and promoting environmental sustainability. Precision sprayers, equipped with cameras and sensors, detect weeds in real‐time and apply herbicides only where needed.

Abstract Industrial hemp is receiving attention for its numerous benefits, particularly in the fiber industry. Weed competition is a primary concern for hemp cultivation, causing reduced yields and inferior‐quality fiber. However, little is known about herbicide application in hemp since a limited range of herbicides are available for hemp production ...

Weed emergence patterns as affected by topsoil movement within an eroded landform
Abstract Soil erosion significantly affects within‐field soil properties, crop productivity, weed emergence patterns, and weed growth. Spatial variability in weed densities, emergence timing, weed seed production, seed viability, herbicide bioavailability, and other factors complicate weed management strategies in eroded landscapes.

Sensitivity of difficult‐to‐control Palmer amaranth accessions to fluridone and diflufenican
Abstract Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson) has evolved resistance to herbicides targeting nine sites of action. Phytoene desaturase‐inhibiting herbicides remain among the few sites of action that are still effective in controlling Palmer amaranth.

PfGSTF2 endows resistance to quizalofop‐p‐ethyl in Polypogon fugax by GSH conjugation
Summary Populations of Polypogon fugax have developed resistance to many acetyl‐CoA carboxylase (ACCase)‐inhibiting herbicides. This resistance threats the effectiveness and sustainability of herbicide use. In our previous research, a field P. fugax population exhibited GST‐based metabolic resistance to the widely used ACCase‐inhibiting herbicide ...
