Insecticides differed consider ably in placement effects on performance, although yield dif ferences were rare. Effects ofpostapplication rainfall on effi cacy were insecticide- and placement-specific. Placement method had the greatest impact on performance of terbufos and chlorpyrifos, the least water-soluble insecticides tested. Spoon-applied terbufos reduced root maggot feeding injury more than conventional banded and modified in-furrow applications in two of five environments. Plots treated with spoon-applied chlorpyrifos yielded 30.8% more recoverable sucrose than those that received the insecticide as a banded application in 1999, the year of least postapplication rainfall. Aldicarb, the most water-soluble insecticide tested, was gen erally unaffected by placement. However, spoon-treated aIdicarb plots produced 19.2% less recoverable sucrose than those receiving the material via modified in-furrow place ment in 2001, the year of highest postapplication rainfall. Contrasts of root injury across ail insecticides suggested that, of ail placement methods tested, the spoon technique has the greatest potential to optimize granular soil insecticide effica cy for management of sugar beet root maggot larvae.","PeriodicalId":403165,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sugarbeet Research","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130636779","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sugarbeets were sprayed three times at weekly intervals beginning at the cotyledon growth stage. Sugarbeet varieties differed in their response to micro-rate herbicide applications. Leaf area, fresh weight and dry weight of Hilleshog E-17 and ACH 555, two diploid varieties, were not reduced by micro-rate applications, while the leaf area of Beta 5400 and Beta 5736, two triploid varieties, was reduced by 24 and 35%, respectively, compared to their respective untreated controls. In a second experiment, the leaf area and fresh and dry weight of Spartan and Hilleshog E-17 were not reduced by postemergence microrate applications in the growth chamber or field, compared to their respective controls.
