116 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION GI fosinate provided rapid bumdown of all of the weeds in the treated areas (Table 1). There was ittle regrowth in these areas, even where glufosinate alone was used. There was apparently orne herbicide residue in this area from prior applications by the Pennsylvania Departme of Transportation. No conclusions can be reached on the effectiveness of the preemerge ce herbicides used in this part of the study. Ini 'ally, all of the treatments including glyphosate provided good to excellent control of all weeds. H wever, by August 22 it appeared that applying glyphosate prior to the treatments containing oxyfluorfen resulted in better control than applying glyphosate and oxyf1uorfen together. he rating on October 24 confirmed this. The oxyfluorfen must injure the weed foliage before the lyphosate can be absorbed and translocated. Perennial weeds were burned down by the combi ation, but were able to regrow if the oxyfluorfen interfered with the activity of the glyphosat . In is study, adding thiazopyr to the oxyfluorfen did not consistently improve the level of preemerge ce weed control obtained. In the area to which glyphosate was applied prior to treatment, xyfluorfen alone or in combination with thiazopyr provided better control than the glyphosat alone. The control provided by thiazopyr at O:Slb/aalone was no better than that provided glyphosate alone. Thiazopyr at 1.0 and 2.0 lb/a alone provided a level of control between g phosate alone and the treatments including oxyf1uorfen Th roadside environment is extremely variable. Soils are mixed, gravel and grit are added in variable amounts, and highly active, long residual herbicides are periodically added. In addition, wide mixture of annual and perennial weeds may be present. Several years of testing on a varie of sites is necessary to determine the suitability of a herbicide for use along roadsides.
