EXAM QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS VERIFIED GRADED A+

Epinasty


abnormal downward curving growth or movement of a leaf resulting from more rapid growth of cells on

the upper rather than on the lower side of the leaf stalk


IPM


Integrated Pest Management



The management of pest populations below levels that cause economic damage by using a compatible

balance of biological, cultural, chemical, genetic, or other control methods.


Winter annual


germinates in the late summer or fall, grows through the winter, and blooms and sets seed in the spring,

dying by summer


Summer Annual


Plants that germinate in the spring or summer and complete their life cycle within one year.


Perennials

,A flowering plant that live for more than two years with living indefinitely by growing from vegetative

plant parts. Reproduction is done through seed (sexual) or vegetative (asexual) making them difficult to

control and making it necessary to prevent seedlings from establishing.



Classified based on how they resprout: simple or creeping.


Biennials


A flowering plant that completes its life cycle in two years. In the first year, they form basal leaves

(rosette) and a taproot. In the second year, it flowers, matures and dies.



Can be confused for winter annuals since winter annuals live during 2 calendar years and 2 seasons;

however, they complete their life cycle within 12 months.


Factors affecting herbicide activity - Plant factors


Different foliar wetting. The shape of plant parts affect how spray is retained. Spray retention is key.



Locations of growing points changes method of poison delivery.



Plants tolerance



Directed spray or shielding beneficial plants physically


Factors affecting herbicide activity - How selective herbicides work


Growth habits. Broadleaf perennial weeds have deep, underground root systems while perennial grasses

may use rhizomes or stolons and survive chemical and mechanical means. Allowing perennial growth

, controls root reserve which allows perennial eradication. Annuals have fibrous or tap root systems

difficult to control manually and variable chemical success.



Weed control factors. Control methods and herbicide use is based on species present. Stages of growth.

Annuals are easiest to control at seeding stage. Perennial should not be allowed to establish past

seedling else they must be controlled through good storage depletion.



Environmental conditions. Herbicide activity is directly proportional to temperature. Dinoseb and MSMA

work only at higher temp with 2,4-D having more latitude. Herbicide effectiveness is directly

proportional to humidity due to a thinner cuticle and open stoma. precipitation is related to humidity

and is an important leaching factor or an herbicide activator.

Weed resistance factors


Monocotyledons (monocots)


Flowering plants whose seeds typically contain only one embryonic leaf, or cotyledon.



Grasses.



Rushes.


Dicotyledon


1. A subdivision of flowering plants whose members possess an embryonic seed leaf made of two halves

or cotyledons.



2. Herbaceous broad-leafs.
