Differential Tolerance of Peppers (Capsicum annuum) to Bentazon
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 June 2017
Abstract
Two field studies were conducted to compare bentazon tolerance in “Bohemian Chili” (BCH) and “Keystone Resistant Giant” (KRG) with other pepper cultivars and plant introductions (PIs). In the first study, BCH, KRG, “Santaka” (SA), and “Sweet Banana” (SB) were treated with five rates of bentazon from 1.1 to 9.0 kg ai/ha. Based on foliar injury, the cultivars ranked BCH = SA < KRG < SB; based on yield tolerance to bentazon, they ranked KRG ≤ SB < SA ≤ BCH. In the second study, the response of BCH, KRG, SA, SB, and five PIs to 4.5 kg/ha bentazon showed that 3 PIs (127445, 163187, 246123) tolerated bentazon similarly to BCH and SA.
