SORHA Competition
• 1:1 inverse-linear relationship between corn yield and SORHA biomass (Perry et al
1983)
• Soybean yield reduction 43% (McWhorter and Hartwig 1972)
• Cotton yield reduction 80% after 12 weeks (Keeley and Thullen 1989)

Objectives
• Determine time required for glyphosate, clethodim, imazapic and nicosulfuron to render SORHA physiologically noncompetitive
![Page 6: Physiological Response of Johnsongrass to Herbicides](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022061405/568145fb550346895db30615/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Physiologically non-competitive
• 50% reduction in net carbon assimilation (AN)
– Biomass accumulation most common parameter to describe competitiveness
– Biomass accumulation directly linked with AN
– 50% reduction in AN was a comparative indicator of competitiveness

Objectives
• Determine time required for glyphosate, clethodim, imazapic and nicosulfuron to render SORHA physiologically noncompetitive
• Determine value of quantitative measurements to predict changes in AN

Conclusions
• Glyphosate renders SORHA physiologically non-competitive more quickly than nicosulfuron, clethodim, or imazapic
• SPAD and Fv/Fm were poorly related to AN
• gs highly correlated with AN
