Controlled-Release Preemergence Herbicide Formulations for Annual Grass Control in Kentucky Bluegrass Turf

Field, greenhouse and laboratory studies were conducted to evaluate the performance of starch xanthide (SX) sludge polymer (SP) and commercial formulations of benefin (N-butyl-N-ethyl-(alpha),(alpha),(alpha)-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-p-toluidine), oxadiazon {2-tert-butyl-4-(2,4-dichloro-5-isopropyloxyphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoline-5-one}, and prosulfalin (N{{4-dipropylamino-3,5-dinitrophenyl}sulfonyl}-S,S-dimethylsulfilimine) in the control of large crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis (L.) Scop. in Kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis (L.)) turf.
