Response of Grapes to 2,4-D, Dicamba, and Glyphosate Simulated Drift Response of Grapes to 2,4-D, Dicamba, and Glyphosate Simulated Drift Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Scott James Wolfe, B.A. Graduate Program in Horticulture and Crop Science The Ohio State University 2013 Thesis Committee: Douglas Doohan, Advisor Joshua Blakselee Mark Loux Copyright by Scott James Wolfe 2013 Abstract In the USA, herbicides are widely used as an integral tool for weed management. With genetically modified crops such as Roundup Ready® (glyphosate-resistant) corn and soybean, herbicides that normally would have killed a crop can be used for weed control. Over years of use, some weed species have developed resistance to glyphosate and require novel approaches to management. New technologies, including 2,4-D and dicamba resistant crops, are one approach for corn and soybean farmers to better manage weeds; however, vapor or particle drift of these herbicides can damage sensitive crops such as grapes, tomatoes, and peppers. Research over the last 30 or more years has shown some of the effects of these herbicides on sensitive crops. With the impending introduction of new resistance traits in agronomic crops, the use of 2,4-D and dicamba will likely increase both in number of applications and in total volume applied per year per given area. Therefore, the severity and frequency of damage observed on sensitive crops may also increase. Grapes are an important crop in Ohio as fresh fruit and for wine production. The wine industry attracts millions of tourists each year with a measureable positive economic effect. With the predicted increase in use of 2,4-D and dicamba, grape growers are concerned about the potential for damage to their vineyards. This research was conducted to better understand the risk associated with this increased use. Grapes were extremely sensitive to 2,4-D and dicamba, to rates as low as 0.0028 kg ae/ha. A greenhouse study with varieties of grapes likely to be planted in Ohio over the next 10 years indicated that V. vinifera varieties were slightly more sensitive ii than hybrid varieties, showing greater injury symptoms, including leaf cupping (dicamba), chlorosis (glyphosate) and parallel venation, and fan shaped leaves (2,4-D). In a field study, the effects of timing (pre bloom, full bloom, and post bloom) and of rate (0.028, 0.0084, and 0.0028 kg ae/ha) of simulated 2,4-D and glyphosate drift were evaluated on ‘Riesling’ vinifera grape. Fruit yield and quality were measured in 2011 and 2012. In 2011, 2,4-D + glyphosate at 0.0084 kg ae/ha + 0.028 kg ae/ha caused effects on shoot length and visually observable injury symptoms, regardless of application timing. Symptoms of injury included parallel venation, fan shaped leaves, and, in more severely injured vines, death of new shoot growth. However, only 2,4-D + glyphosate at 0.028 kg ae/ha + 0.028 kg ae/ha applied pre and post bloom and 0.0084 kg ae/ha + 0.0084 kg ae/ha applied post bloom affected yield. Post bloom application of 2,4-D + glyphosate at 0.028 kg ae/ha + 0.028 kg ae/ha and 0.0084 kg ae/ha + 0.0084 kg ae/ha also resulted in a loss of yield in the year following the herbicide treatments. One year after application, some vines had died that were treated with post bloom 2,4-D + glyphosate at 0.028 kg ae/ha + 0.028 kg ae/ha and 0.0084 kg ae/ha + 0.0084 kg ae/ha. The application of the pre and full bloom 0.028 kg ae/ha + 0.028 kg ae/ha in 2012 caused much greater injury (96-100% injury) and loss of yield (100%) than in 2011. In conclusion, 2,4-D and dicamba drift may result in severe injury to grapevines; and the rate and timing of the drift can affect the severity of damage observed. The damage caused by the combination of 2,4-D and glyphosate was almost always more severe than either herbicide applied alone in the field. iii Dedication Dedicated to my wife, Danae. iv Acknowledgments I would like to thank the members of the Weed Lab in Wooster who helped with research, ratings, potting, watering, etc., Linjian Jiang, Steven “Vinny” Font, AJ Kropp, Tim Koch, Roger Downer, Jason Parker, Andy Glaser, Erick Mvati, Connie Echaíz, Andrea Sosa, Marlon AC Pangan, Heather McDonough, Ben Morphew, and Ashley Kulhanek.

It is the most widely used herbicide in the world, and the third most commonly used in North America.[1] 2,4-D is also an important synthetic auxin, often used in laboratories for plant research and as a supplement in plant cell culture media such as MS medium. History 2,4-D was developed during World War II by a British team at Rothamsted Experimental Station, under the leadership of Judah Hirsch Quastel, aiming to increase crop yields for a nation at war.[citation needed] When it was commercially released in 1946, it became the first successful selective herbicide and allowed for greatly enhanced weed control in wheat, maize (corn), rice, and similar cereal grass crop, because it only kills dicots, leaving behind monocots. Mechanism of herbicide action 2,4-D is a synthetic auxin, which is a class of plant growth regulators.

  • Exposure to Herbicides in House Dust and Risk of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
    Journal of Exposure Science and Environmental Epidemiology (2013) 23, 363–370 & 2013 Nature America, Inc. All rights reserved 1559-0631/13 www.nature.com/jes ORIGINAL ARTICLE Exposure to herbicides in house dust and risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia Catherine Metayer1, Joanne S. Colt2, Patricia A. Buffler1, Helen D. Reed3, Steve Selvin1, Vonda Crouse4 and Mary H. Ward2 We examine the association between exposure to herbicides and childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Dust samples were collected from homes of 269 ALL cases and 333 healthy controls (o8 years of age at diagnosis/reference date and residing in same home since diagnosis/reference date) in California, using a high-volume surface sampler or household vacuum bags. Amounts of agricultural or professional herbicides (alachlor, metolachlor, bromoxynil, bromoxynil octanoate, pebulate, butylate, prometryn, simazine, ethalfluralin, and pendimethalin) and residential herbicides (cyanazine, trifluralin, 2-methyl-4- chlorophenoxyacetic acid (MCPA), mecoprop, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), chlorthal, and dicamba) were measured. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were estimated by logistic regression. Models included the herbicide of interest, age, sex, race/ethnicity, household income, year and season of dust sampling, neighborhood type, and residence type. The risk of childhood ALL was associated with dust levels of chlorthal; compared to homes with no detections, ORs for the first, second, and third tertiles were 1.49 (95% CI: 0.82–2.72), 1.49 (95% CI: 0.83–2.67), and 1.57 (95% CI: 0.90–2.73), respectively (P-value for linear trend ¼ 0.05). The magnitude of this association appeared to be higher in the presence of alachlor.

GLYPHOSATE III FOREWORD This toxicological profile is prepared in accordance with guidelines developed by the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The original guidelines were published in the Federal Register on April 17, 1987. Each profile will be revised and republished as necessary. The ATSDR toxicological profile succinctly characterizes the toxicologic and adverse health effects information for these toxic substances described therein. Each peer-reviewed profile identifies and reviews the key literature that describes a substance's toxicologic properties. Other pertinent literature is also presented, but is described in less detail than the key studies. The profile is not intended to be an exhaustive document; however, more comprehensive sources of specialty information are referenced. The focus of the profiles is on health and toxicologic information; therefore, each toxicological profile begins with a relevance to public health discussion which would allow a public health professional to make a real-time determination of whether the presence of a particular substance in the environment poses a potential threat to human health.

  • US EPA-Pesticides; Pyrasulfotole
    UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY WASHINGTON D.C., 20460 JUL 0 5 2007 OFFICE OF PREVENTION, PESTICIDES AND TOXIC SUBSTANCES MEMORANDUM SUBJECT: Evaluation of Public Interest Documentation for the Conditional Registration of Pyrasulfotole on Wheat, Barley, Oats, and Triticale (D340011; D340014) FROM: Nicole Zinn, Biologist Biological Analysis Branch Biological and Economic Analysis Division (7503P) THRU: Arnet Jones, Chief Biological Analysis Branch Biological and Economic Analysis Division (7503P) TO: Tracy White Joanne Miller Registration Division (7505P) PEER REVIEW PANEL: June 27,2007 SUMMARY Pyrasulfotole is a 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor, which is a new mode of action for small grains. HPPD-inhibitors are currently available for use in other crops but not in small grains. BEAD has reviewed the efficacy information which indicates that pyrasulfotole will provide control of redroot pigweed, common lambsquarters, wild buckwheat and volunteer canola. To control a broader spectrum of weeds, a combination product with bromoxynil is proposed for use in the United States. BEAD reviewed the documentation submitted by the registrant to determine whether one of two criteria have been met: there is a need for the new pesticide that is not being met by currently registered pesticides or the benefits from the new pesticide are greater than those from currently registered pesticides or non-chemical control measures. Although the information submitted focused on the pyrasulfotole + bromoxynil product, BEAD focused its review on the benefits of pyrasulfotole since bromoxynil is currently registered. BEAD believes that by providing a new mode of action for control of certain weeds, pyrasulfotole meets a need that is not being met by currently registered pesticides.
