Lentil Group B herbicide tolerance, Yorke Peninsula (Arthurton) and Mid North (Pinery), South Australia locations
Aims
  • To identify levels of tolerance to a range of Group B herbicides in lentil cultivars which have been selected from the Pulse Breeding Australia (PBA) program for improved tolerance to Group B herbicides.
Key messages
  • A high level of crop safety exists in PBA Herald XT to both post-sowing pre-emergent (PSPE) and post-emergent (PE) applications of imazethapyr. This high level of crop safety was shown to most but not all of the group B herbicides (e.g. Imi-4).
  • Nipper showed up to 100% yield loss in some treatments where tolerant lines showed no yield loss. Nipper incurred yield losses from all herbicide treatments at Pinery but not all at Arthurton. Flumetsulam and single rates of Imazethapyr and Imi-2 were less damaging at Arthurton, but other treatments generally caused similar yield losses between the two sites.
