The Incidence of Eradicane Injury in Several Corn Cultivars as Influenced by Seed Placement, Soil Moisture, and Chemical Concentration
Abstract
The development of the antidote R-25788 has made it possible to use the herbicide, Eptam, in corn production. However, there have been many reported cases of safener failure in field corn treated with Eradicane. The chemical concentration, depth of planting, and soil moisture were not found to directly affect the incidence of Eradicane injury in the Dekalb XL-55 and Dekalb XL-67 cultivars. Twelve commonly used corn cultivars were found to be less susceptible to Eradicane injury than the Dekalb XL-67 cultivar.
