Abstract

Field experiments were conducted at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center in Wooster, OH, in 2005, 2006, and 2007 to evaluate the tolerance of eight tomato varieties to thifensulfuron-methyl and POST control of broadleaf weeds. Herbicide treatments included thifensulfuron-methyl at 0, 6, and 12 g ai ha−1. In 2005, significant injury was observed in variety TR122244 at 1 and 3 wk after treatment (WAT). The highest crop injury in 2005 was 38% at 1 WAT for variety TR122244. However, this variety experienced a conflicting effect on crop marketable yield when treated with the low and high rates of thifensulfuron-methyl in 2005. Variety TR122244 had the highest crop injury, yet produced the highest marketable yield when treated with either rate of thifensulfuron-methyl. At 3 WAT in 2005, significant injury occurred in variety 11111120, with 13% injury recorded for both the high and low rates of thifensulfuron-methyl. No significant injury resulted from either rate of thifensulfuron-methyl at 1, 3, or 6 WAT in 2006 or 2007. However, in 2006 a significant marketable yield reduction was observed for variety 97045116 when treated with the high rate of thifensulfuron-methyl. No varieties experienced significant marketable yield effects or injury when treated with either rate of thifensulfuron-methyl in 2007. Registration of thifensulfuron-methyl herbicide is not recommended at this time because of the potential for crop stunting and yield reduction in certain tomato varieties.

Experimentos de campo fueron realizados en el Centro de Investigación y Desarrollo Agrícola de Ohio en Wooster, Ohio, en 2005, 2006, y 2007, para evaluar la tolerancia de ocho variedades de tomate a thifensulfuron-methyl y el control POST de malezas de hoja ancha. Los tratamientos con herbicidas incluyeron thifensulfuron-methyl a 0, 6, y 12 g ai ha−1. En 2005, se observó un daño significativo en la variedad TR122244 a 1 y 3 semanas después del tratamiento (WAT). El mayor daño en el cultivo, en 2015, fue 38% a 1 WAT para la variedad TR122244. Sin embargo, esta variedad experimentó un efecto contradictorio en relación al rendimiento comercializable del cultivo cuando se trató con las dosis baja y alta de thifensulfuron-methyl, en 2005. La variedad TR122244 tuvo el mayor daño, pero produjo el rendimiento comercializable más alto cuando fue tratada con cualquiera de las dosis de thifensulfuron-methyl usadas. A 3 WAT en 2005, ocurrió un daño significativo en la variedad 11111120, con un daño registrado de 13% tanto para la dosis de thifensulfuron-methyl alta como la baja. Ninguna dosis de thifensulfuron-methyl resultó en un daño significativo a 1, 3, ó 6 WAT en 2006 ó 2007. Sin embargo, en 2006 se observó una reducción significativa en el rendimiento comercializable para la variedad 97045116, cuando se trató con la dosis alta de thifensulfuron-methyl. Ninguna variedad experimentó efectos significativos sobre el rendimiento comercializable o el daño cuando se trató con thifensulfuron-methyl en 2007. El registro del herbicida thifensulfuron-methyl no está recomendado en este momento porque existe el potencial de retraso en el crecimiento del cultivo y de reducción del rendimiento en algunas variedades de tomate.
