Abstract
The tolerance of cotton cultivars to the herbicide prometryn was determined in greenhouse tests. Prometryn was applied preemergence from 0.3 to 12.0 lbs. a.i./A and postemergence from 1.2 to 12.0 lbs. a.i./A. Upland cultivars were very susceptible to injury from prometryn applied preemergence; whereas Pima S-6, Pima S-7, and Acala 1517-75 were tolerant. Postemergence treatments of prometryn applied two weeks after planting were less injurious to Upland cultivars than preemergence treatments, however, differential tolerance between, Pima and Upland cultivars was evident at the high rates of application.Series/Report no.
