Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the growth characteristics, and the effect of plant growth regulators on the sprouting and growth of purple nutsedge(Cyperus rotundus L.) in order to establish effective control system in lawn ground. The flowering of purple nutsedge was initiated 30 days after transplanting regardless of the transplanting time. Low temperature less than $10^{\circ}C$ after flowering was required for tuber formation, showing that the tuberization was related to air temperature. Shoot number and dry weight of underground portion of purple nutsedge was slightly affected by plant growth regulators such as benzylamino purine, abscisic acid, brassinosteroid and jasmonate. Imazaquin applied at 1, 2 and 3 weeks after transplanting induced multi-shooting and inhibited shoot growth indicating that the herbicide played a role as plant growth regulator at a concentration of 30 and 60g ai/10a. The greatest inhibition of purple nutsedge was obtained by pyrazosulfuron-ethyl as applied 1 weeks after transplanting, showing almost 100% control of purple nutsedge. Tuber of purple nutsedge composed of 61.83% of moisture, 31.60% of carbohydrates, 4.03% of crude protein, 1.57% of crude fat and 0.97% of crude ash.

잔디밭에서 문제잡초로 알려져 있는 향부자의 효과적인 방제를 위한 기초 자료를 제공하고자 향부자의 생육특성, 생장조절제 처리가 맹아 및 생육에 미치는 영향, 제초제의 선발실험, 향부자의 일반성분을 조사하였다. 향부자의 개화는 이식 시기에 관계없이 이식 30일부터 시작되었고 괴경은 기온이 $10^{\circ}C$이하로 내려가면서 형성되기 시작하였다. 생장조절제 BA, ABA, TS-303, PDJ 등의 4종을 향부자 괴경에 처리한 결과 맹아에는 영향을 미치지 않았으며, 이식 60일째부터 경엽에 4회 처리시 4종 공히 신초 수와 지하부 건물중을 다소 증가시켰으나 신초 건물중과 괴경 수에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. Imazaquin 30g ai/10a 처리는 괴경으로부터 다량(multi-shooting)의 신초를 발생시켰으나 pyrazosulfuron-ethyl과 bensulfuron-methyl 처리는 multi-shooting 현상을 보이지 않았다. Pyrazosulfuron-ethyl 10g ai/10a 처리는 향부자의 생육을 90% 가까이 억제하여 bensulfuron-methyl 10g ai/10a 보다 높은 방제율을 보였다. 향부자 성숙한 괴경의 구성성분은 수분 61.83%, 탄수화물 31.60%, 조단백질 4.03%, 조지방 1.57%, 조회분 0.97% 이었다.
