1 Conditions Affecting Herbicide Control of Grasses Candice Prince Aquatic Weed Control Short Course 2018

2 Grasses and Varying Environments Many problematic grasses are able to tolerate a wide variety of environmental conditions

3 Environment and Herbicide Efficacy Environmental conditions prior to, during, and after herbicide application affect efficacy Direct: absorption and translocation Indirect: growth and physiology From Tao et al. 2016

4 Control Salinity Drought Cold Heat American Phytopathological Society, 2018

5 Factors affecting herbicide efficacy Leaf traits affect how much herbicide is taken up by plants Ben Himme Cuticle width Leaf number and size Leaf angle From Tao et al Benjamin Cummings

6 Factors affecting herbicide efficacy Plants that are not actively growing may see limited translocation of systemic herbicides Photosynthetic rate Brian Hazell

7 Factors affecting herbicide efficacy Biomass can affect management success in rhizomatous species Jailisse Knowles Root to shoot ratios Regrowth potential Delaware Invasive Species Council Chis Evans, Bugwood.org

8 Fabian Menalled, Montana State University

9 Environmental Conditions Flooding Drought Salinity Light Climate

10 Forest and Kim Starr, Bugwood.org Flooding

11 Effects of Flooding Tolerance varies with species leaf area photosynthesis (can recover in flood tolerant species) May initially limit number of leaves exposed to herbicide applications

12 Shoot Biomass (g) Flooding Flooded conditions may limit herbicide efficacy in torpedograss (Quincy et al. 2018) Depth (cm) 0 30 a 40 a bc b bc b e cd de bc

13 Flooding Flooded conditions may limit herbicide efficacy in torpedograss Translocation issue? Greg MacDonald

14 Forest and Kim Starr, Bugwood.org Drought

15 Effects of Drought Ben Himme Benjamin Cummings Upright leaf angle photosynthesis, growth leaf area, leaf number leaf cuticle thickness Composition of cuticle can change more hydrophobic

16 Drought Water-stress has decreased efficacy of ACCaseinhibiting herbicides for certain grass species (Pereira 2010, Pereira et al. 2011) Goosegrass Plantain signalgrass John D. Byrd, Bugwood.org

17 Forest and Kim Starr, Bugwood.org Forest and Kim Starr, Bugwood.org Salinity

18 Effects of Salinity From Tao et al Tolerance varies with species photosynthesis, growth leaf area, leaf number leaf thickness root:shoot ratios Jailisse Knowles

19 Salinity Salinity decreased efficacy of glyphosate and imazapyr in torpedograss, not in phragmites (more salt tolerant) (Prince et al. 2018) Saline (15 ppt) Freshwater (0.7 ppt) Torpedograss treated with glyphosate (4 lb. a.i./a)

20 Salinity Torpedograss rhizome biomass 60 DAT with glyphosate

21 David J. Moorhead, Bugwood.org Nancy Loewenstein, Bugwood.org Light

22 Effects of Light From Tao et al Jailisse Knowles High light: photosynthesis leaf thickness and cuticle development Low light: leaf thickness leaf area leaf number photosynthesis root:shoot ratios

23 Light Shade has been shown to increase injury by contact herbicides (Mellendorf et al. 2015, Thompson and Nissen 2002) Higher light intensity may increase injury by systemic herbicides (Varanasi et al. 2016)

24 NASA 2015 Temperature and Climate Change

25 Effects of High Temperature Ben Himme cuticle permeability photosynthesis biomass leaf area Brian Hazell

26 Temperature Mixed effects, species dependent Increased effects in some grasses (johnsongrass, bermudagrass) increased absorption of herbicide (Jordan 1977; McWhorter and Azlin 1978) Decreased effects in others (large crabgrass, green foxtail), greater metabolism, volatilization of herbicides, or other changes (Smeda and Putnam 1990; Johnson and Young 2002)

27 Effects of CO 2 Ben Himme leaf thickness photosynthesis (C 3 species) root:shoot ratios Jailisse Knowles

28 Height (cm) Climate Change Increased temperature and atmospheric [CO 2 ] may reduce herbicide efficacy in certain grasses, like phragmites (Prince et al. 2017) Current Climate Conditions Climate Change Conditions

29 Take-Away: Consider the environmental conditions when planning, try to apply when growing conditions are ideal Flooding may decrease efficacy Drought may decrease efficacy Salinity may decrease efficacy Light depends on herbicide (contact vs. systemic) Temperature depends on species
