1 Page 1 of 6 Project Name: Pre EmergentHerbicide Safety - Dithiopyr New Ongoing X Completed Duration if ongoing or completed: Project Description: The Pre-Emergent Herbicide Safety Project began in 2004 and has continued through While specific crops and herbicides have changed, the intent of this research has been to screen over-the-top applications of pre-emergent herbicides as plants are breaking dormancy, or beginning new growth, and then 4 to 6 weeks later once foliage is more mature. This research project sheet covers dithiopyr based formulations (,, Dimension WSP). Research Project Abstract (if available): Abstract from 2014 Dithiopyr Safety Summary Dimension was initially registered in 1992 for ornamental horticulture uses. This initial label contained an extensive list of ornamental horticulture plants in landscapes where Dimension could be used without causing phytotoxicity. From 1992 through 2004, IR-4 conducted 68 trials on 42 species / genera, including several different fern species grown in field containers, to contribute crop safety data for dithiopyr formulations. In 2006, the new label contained registered uses for field container and in ground nursery production, the first dithiopyr product to have these use sites. A revised label was published in 2015 adding more crop species to the label. During 2014 to 2016, IR-4 conducted 206 trials with formulation on 108 species / genera, including ornamental grasses to further expand the treatable plant list in the current label. Of the researched crops and Dimension formulations, only four crops (Hemerocallis sp., Muhlenbergia capillaris, Pennisetum alopecuroides and Pseudotsuga mensiezii) can be added at this time based on the data provided here. It is recommended the trials conducted using emulsifiable concentrate formulations be repeated with. Target Species (Phytotoxicity, or common and Latin name of arthropod, pathogen, weed): Safety Target s (list tested crops if ongoing or completed project) See IR-4 Safety to Date below Target Product(s)(list tested products or numbered compounds if ongoing or completed project) Product Registration and Research Status Registration Status Labeled & Commercialized Wide range of ornamental horticulture crops listed Labeled & Commercialized Opportunity to add additional ornamental horticulture crops Labeled But NOT Commercialized Not yet registered or labeled No longer available for development * IR-4 Data contributed to registration decision either adding pest to label or not pursuing further research 1 At least one crop species screened fully 2 Product not available for production ornamentals Creation Date: 7/23/2015 Last Saved Date: 9/21/2017

Rank products during protocol development IR-4 Safety Trials to Date Average rating on a scale of 1 5 with 1 = 0 to about no injury and 5 = severe injury and mortality; minimum to maximum rating; number of trials. A rating of 3 or higher is considered commercially unacceptable (red text). A rating of 1 or 2 is considered commercially acceptable and those with more than 3 trials are complete (green text). Labeled indicates that IR-4 generated data in at least one trial and that this crop is listed on the label. For crop/product combinations that are blank, IR-4 has not screened this combination.
