Abstract/Contents:"Goosegrass [Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertn.] is one of the most troublesome warm-season weeds in the southern United States, commonly infesting various turfgrasses. Currently, the postemergence options for controlling goosegrass are highly limited and its eradication becomes more difficult when the plant starts tillering and develops seedheads. Among the currently registered options, topramezone has the ability to control mature goosegrass. However, research conducted in Florida suggests that despite seemingly effective control, goosegrass may recover due to surviving roots. Therefore, this study assessed strategies aimed to ensure the persistent removal of mature goosegrass populations. Two greenhouse studies were conducted to evaluate the response of goosegrass at 1-3 tillers and 4-10 tillers to topramezone 1) applied once at rates increasing from 0.002 L ha-1 to 0.036 L ha-1 and 2) at a total rate of 0.018 L ha-1 applied once or equally divided into 2, 4, or 8 biweekly applications. Visual control was assessed on a scale of 0 to 100%. None of the single-applied topramezone rates effectively controlled control goosegrass (<60% control) as shown with the rate response study. All sequential topramezone applications tested in the second study resulted in >90% goosegrass control compared to =70% control achieved with single application at 16 weeks after initial treatment. Moreover, programs in which the total rate of 0.018 L ha-1 was split into >2 (i.e., 4 and 8) applications provided near-complete (>95%) goosegrass control regardless of tillering stage. Results from this research suggest that extended application programs utilizing minimized topramezone rate may provide persistent control of mature goosegrass populations."
