FDACS Noxious Weed List and Federal Noxious Weed List (USDA) - ANSWERNoxious weeds
seedling
vegetative
reproductive
maturity - ANSWERGrowth stages of a weed
- cotyledons may be present along with first true leaves
- plants are small and easily controlled
- leaf surface is easily penetrated because waxy coating and surface hairs are not well developed
- younger plants have small roots near soil surface
- small size requires less herbicide for control and no unsightly patches of dead weeds -
ANSWERSeedling stage
- rapid growth of stems, roots, and foliage corresponding with rapid uptake of water and nutrients,
the moving of water and nutrients throughout the plant, and the production of plant sugars through
photosynthesis
- many herbicides are much more effective in this stage - ANSWERVegetative stage
- flowering and seed production or fruit set
- growth is limited and uptake of water and nutrients is slowed
- translocation of water, nutrients, and sugars is directed to reproductive parts, flowers, fruits, and
seeds
- movement of nutrients and sugars and herbicides to the roots is reduced - ANSWERReproductive
stage
- little or no growth
- movement of water, nutrients, and herbicides is slow
, - perennial plants translocate sugars to roots for winter storage (good time to apply translocated
herbicides for this life cycle) - ANSWERMature stage
d) chemical - ANSWERWhich IVM control method uses 2, 4-D to control broadleaf weeds?
a) mechanical
b) cultural
c) biological
d) chemical
a) it is usually conducted by state and federal agencies

a) it is usually conducted by state and federal agencies
b) it is used for control of a broad spectrum of weed species
c) it is fast-acting
d) it relies on living organisms to control unwanted weed species
e) when successful, it is usually inexpensive to maintain
a) cultural - ANSWERWhich IVM control method uses mulches, fertilizers, and fire?
a) cultural
b) chemical
c) mechanical
d) biological
- one-year life cycle (summer or winter)
- grasslike or broadleaved
- summer annuals grow from seeds that sprout in spring - grow, mature, produce seed and die before
winter (e.g., crabgrass, Texas panicum, common cocklebur, pigweed, and common lambsquarter)
- winter annuals grow from seeds that sprout in fall - grow, mature, produce seed, and die before
summer (e.g., chickweed, shepherd's purse, and wild mustard)
- root systems do not persist from year to year, so defoliating them usually controls them
- treatment not recommended after seed set - ANSWERAnnual life cycle
