Effect of Cotton (Gossipium hirsutum) Herbicides on Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) Populations

Herbicide treatments were evaluated for their ability to reduce the numbers of Palmer amaranth plants. Treatments included preemergence herbicides, postemergence tank mixtures with glyphosate and typical post-directed treatments. These data may be more useful than traditional visual rating information in assessing the resistance-prevention value of alternative herbicides in glyphosate-resistant weed control systems.
