Abstract

Field experiment was conducted in 2017 to evaluate the effect of soil applied herbicides on the growth of orobanche in 3 sunflower cultivars (Prograss, Farrokhi & Confectionary (Ajili)) in Khayraj, Buin Zahra in Qazvin province. The experiment was performed in a completely randomized block design with 18 treatments (one waterlogging treatment and 17 herbicide treatments with three concentrations of 0%, 75% and 100% recommended dose) with three replications. The measured traits included density, fresh and dry weight of orobanche and biological indicators of sunflower. Results showed that the best control of orobanche was observed in 20g/ha trifloxysulfuron (Envoke, WG 75%; 92.2% control) (), Flooding method (90.1% control), 3L/ha Butacchlor (Machete, 60% EC; 88.1% control), 1.5L/ha cycloate (Ro-Neet, EC 72%; 88% control) () and 4L/ha etal-fluoraline (Sonalan, EC33. 3%; 87% control) (). In this study, Ajili, Farokhi and Progres sunflower cultivars were sensitive to orobanche, respectively.
