Sainfoin stand termination: Variable herbicide efficacy in field conditions
Abstract Effective termination of perennial forage legumes is a critical step in a crop rotation system, particularly in arid and semi‐arid regions where soil moisture conservation and timely establishment of subsequent crops are essential. Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.), a deep‐rooted, drought‐tolerant forage legume gaining renewed interest ...

Aspects of weed resistance to auxinic herbicides
Synthetic auxins have been widely used for selective control of broadleaf weeds since the mid-1940s. After more than 70 years using synthetic auxin herbicides, there are 41 different resistant species reported. Weed resistance to auxin herbicides is poorly understood and in most reported cases, no studies have been done to investigate the mechanistic ...

Soybean and tobacco response to sublethal rates of herbicides used along roadsides
Abstract Herbicides are one of the primary tools for vegetation management along roadsides. However, the drift of particles and vapors from herbicide applications along roadsides can cause damage and yield loss in adjacent sensitive crops. The objective of this research was to investigate the response of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] and tobacco ...

SOME EFFECTS OF THREE HERBICIDAL AUXINS ON STOMATAL MOVEMENTS [PDF]
SummaryThe effects of 2, 4‐dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4‐D), 2, 4,5‐trichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4,5‐T) and 2‐methyl‐4‐chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) on stomatal opening on illumination of excised, turgid leaves of Stachytarpheta indica were studied by microscopic examination of epidermal strips fixed in absolute ethanol.

Tomographic docking suggests the mechanism of auxin receptor TIR1 selectivity [PDF]
We study the binding of plant hormone IAA on its receptor TIR1 introducing a novel computational method that we call tomographic docking and that accounts for interactions occurring along the depth of the binding pocket.

ABSTRACT Multigenerational stress exposure induces stress memory in plants, influencing resource allocation, defence mechanisms, and productivity. Weed competition imposes both resource‐based (abiotic) and allelopathic (biotic) stress, engaging overlapping hormonal pathways.

Plant growth regulator and spring nitrogen effects on grass seed crops in western Canada
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used in herbage seed crops to mitigate lodging risk and protect seed yield, though their effects on aging perennial grass stands remain understudied. This study evaluated the effect of PGRs on the agronomic characteristics of herbage seed crops of creeping red fescue (Festuca rubra L.), meadow brome (Bromus ...

Effects on herbicides on hedgerow biodiversity [PDF]
Low dosages of herbicides may reduce the number of flowers on non-target plants. Effect of herbicides on flowering and on pollen and nectar production are relevant end-points for effect assessment on non-target species.
