Abstract

In 1982 and 1983, CGA 82725 {2-propynyl-2-[4-[(3,5-dichloro-2-pyridinyl)oxy] phenoxy] propanoic acid}, fenoxaprop {(±)-2-[4-[(6-chloro-2-benzoxazolyl)oxy]phenoxyl]propanoic acid}, fluazifop {(±)-2-[4-[[5-trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl] oxy]phenoxy] propanoic acid}, haloxyfop {2-[4-[[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl] oxy] phenoxy] propanoic acid}, and sethoxydim {2-[1-(ethoxyimino-(butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one} were evaluated as postemergence treatments for the control of rhizome johnsongrass [Sorghum halepense (L.) Pers. # SORHA] in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. ‘Acala SJ-2′). Applications of fluazifop or haloxyfop, and the higher rates of sethoxydim or CGA 82725 or fenoxaprop, controlled 90% or more johnsongrass 20 and 52 weeks after application and prevented cotton yield losses.
