Abstract
Volunteer peanut and cutleaf evening primrose are part of the epidemiology of spotted wilt disease of peanut and other susceptible crops in the Southeastern U.S. Coastal Plain. Studies were conducted on the timing and frequency of fallow harrowing, integrated with applications of glyphosate or tribenuron-methyl, for control of volunteer peanut and cutleaf evening primrose. Spring harrowing was generally more effective in controlling volunteer peanut than fall or winter harrowing. Conversely, cutleaf evening primrose was controlled by sequential harrowing in the fall, winter, and spring, with single harrowing less effective. In general, spring applications of glyphosate or tribenuron-methyl were equally effective in controlling volunteer peanut and cutleaf evening primrose in absence of tillage.
