Abstract
Tests the effects of herbicide on wiregrass (Aristida stricta var. beyrichiana) grown as tubelings in Florida. The herbicides Aatrex 4L (atrazine), Factor 65WDG (prodiamine), or Ronstar 50WP (oxadiazon) were applied individually or in combination to four month old seedlings. Phytotoxicity was evaluated 2, 6, and 10 weeks after application. Factor applied alone caused the least amount of injury. Ronstar, Aatrex, and Factor with or without Aatrex caused slight but acceptable injury.Suggested Citation
