Rolling after the application of a contact fungicide does not reduce efficacy on putting greens
Abstract Golf course superintendents are often challenged by labor shortages and must find creative ways to complete maintenance tasks, such as rolling putting greens immediately after a fungicide application, before golfers arrive. However, there is concern that rolling immediately after a fungicide application could reduce its efficacy. The objective

Utilizing high‐throughput phenotyping to identify metribuzin tolerance in winter wheat
Abstract Plant breeders and weed scientists address weed management collaboratively by selecting for herbicide tolerance in breeding programs. Metribuzin, a Group 5 PSII‐inhibiting herbicide, is labeled for use in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). However, application to currently available lines results in frequent, variable, and unpredictable crop injury.

Efficacy and phytotoxicity of post emergence herbicides in garlic
The incidence of weeds in the garlic crop interferes with the quality and quantity of the harvest. This study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of herbicides in different combinations of sequential applications during the cultivation of garlic. The experiment was carried out in a randomized block design, with ten treatments and four replications.

Can soil detoxifiers mitigate crop injury from residual herbicides?
Abstract Sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) growers have limited herbicide options for in‐crop application, so they rely on weed control in rotational crops to minimize weed problems. Sugarbeet is sensitive to many herbicides used in corn (Zea mays L.), a common rotational crop, which effectively reduces weed control options elsewhere in the rotation ...

Implementing potential climate‐smart practices through diverse partnerships
Climate change is one of the greatest threats to society, negatively impacting agriculture and crop yields. Globally, agriculture is also one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitting sectors. Climate‐smart practices that are developed through diverse partnerships with scientists and practitioners are needed to decrease GHG emissions. We implemented

Development and adoption of Kernza—A perennial grain crop for sustainable agriculture
Annual cereal grains account for ~50% of human food calories, but cultivation of these crops has resulted in major environmental and social issues worldwide. For nearly three decades, researchers have been breeding intermediate wheatgrass—a perennial cool‐season grass—to serve as the world's first commercial‐scale perennial grain crop to improve ...
