  • METHODS OF WEED CONTROL INVOLVING AAD-1 PLANTS, AND PRE-PLANT AND/OR PRE-EMERGENCE HERBICIDE APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20140256548
    Abstract: The subject invention includes pre-plant and/or pre-emergence applications of a herbicide to an area or field that is planted with seed comprising an AAD-1 event. In some preferred embodiments, the seed comprises corn event DAS-40278-9. In some preferred embodiments, the herbicide can be a formulation comprising a 2,4-D active ingredient. Such herbicides and formulations can also be used in pre-plant applications. Additional herbicides, such as glyphosate, can be used in combination, including in the pre-plant applications.
