1 Biology and Management of Rattail Fescue in Direct-Seed Systems Dan Ball Oregon State University Pendleton, OR Introduction Rattail fescue (Vulpia myuros) has been a localized problem in certain areas of the PNW for many years, but more recently has emerged as a significant new problem for dryland wheat producers using direct-seeding practices. It is also an increasing problem for turfgrass seed producers throughout the region. Rattail fescue has long been a problem weed of crops and grasslands in many temperate regions of the world. It occurs extensively in southern Australia, and southwestern and central Europe, where it is referred to as silvergrass. It is reportedly more common in direct-seeded crops in these areas. Rattail fescue tends to prefer light to medium textured soils with a slightly acid ph. Plants are shallow rooted and sensitive to drought conditions, which appear to limit its spread in its native Mediterranean region. In the PNW, increased adoption of direct- seeding is contributing to increases in rattail fescue infestations. The shallow rooting plants do not tolerate tillage, and seeds will not germinate if buried deeper than one half inch in the soil. In addition, conventional rates of glyphosate have proven ineffective in controlling rattail fescue in direct-seed systems and in chemical fallow. Because concerns have been increasing among PNW dryland wheat producers about the incidence of rattail fescue in direct- seed cropping systems, a new STEEP III funded study is being undertaken in the PNW states to gain a better understanding of some basic biological characteristics of rattail fescue, and to develop control practices in direct-seed, dryland cropping systems. Little information exists on the biology of this grass weed. In addition, few options for effective control without tillage in fallow and in cereal crops exist, and need to be developed. Information is needed on optimum temperatures for seed germination, the characteristics of seed dormancy, vernalization requirements, and longevity of seed in the soil. This information will provide a better understanding of the life cycle of rattail fescue, and also facilitate the design of management strategies in cropping systems. Rattail Fescue Seed Biology Optimum temperatures for ratatil fescue seed germination. Seed from a collection of rattail fescue obtained near Hermiston, Oregon, was dry stored 3 years and used to determine optimum seed germination temperature. A two-way thermogradient plate was used to investigate germination requirements. Alternating temperatures of 16- hour day/8-hour night, were established. Initial conditions were 40/40 ºC (day/night temperature) on the high end of the plate and 5/5 ºC on the cool end. A total of 64 temperature regimes were monitored. The study was repeated three times. Germinated seed was counted every 3 days, and at the end of 18 days total germination recorded. Many germination temperatures resulted in similar levels of rattail germination. Maximum germination occurred at around 20/20 ºC day/night temperature, or about 68 ºF. Rattail fescue seed dormancy. An on-going study is being conducted to investigate the primary (after-ripening) dormancy in Rattail fescue (Vulpia myuros) seed. Germination was tested on freshly harvested seed, and on seed after dry storage for 1 month. Seed used in this study was obtained from an irrigated fine fescue research plot at Hermiston. The study evaluated germination promoting factors of temperature, and pre-chilling. Temperatures were set at a constant 20 o C in darkness or a constant 30 o C in darkness, and chill treatments were either no chilling prior to germination, or or chilling at 5 o C for 5 days prior to germinating. Rattail fescue germination was greater at 20 o C than at 30 o C, and pre-chilling of seed improved germination of fresh seed (Table 1). These results are consistent with that typically observed in weeds categorized as being true winter annuals. This study will continue for a 1-year period. 93

An on-going study is being conducted to evaluate the influence of burial time and burial depth on germination in rattail fescue at three sites in eastern Oregon. Three burial sites were located near LaGrande and Pendleton, Oregon. All sites were dryland with no irrigation. Nylon mesh packets, containing 100 seeds were buried at different depths. Packets were buried in September, and exhumed after burial for 6 months and 1 year. Collected seeds were air dried, pre-chilled for 5 days at 5 C in the dark, and placed in a continuous 20 C, dark germination chamber. Germination counts were taken after 21 days. Seed buried for a six month period appeared to be dormant when exhumed in March (6-month burial). After burial for 1 year, seed germination varied from 1% to 30% depending on location (Table 2). The LaGrande site was on a high ph soil (9.0 ph). The Summerville and Pendleton sites were on soils with ph typical for the region, and the Summerville sight tended to be a cooler, higher elevation site than Pendleton. The study will continue for an additional 2 years. Table 2.

3 95 Rattail Fescue Management in Chemical Fallow. Rattail fescue can be controlled with high levels of tillage, but control is poor with application rates of glyphosate typically used during chemical fallow periods in direct-seed systems. This leads to increasing infestation levels of rattail fescue in chemical fallow and subsequent direct-seeded cereal crops. Preliminary research in Oregon showed high rates of glyphosate applied in the spring are insufficient to eliminate seed head production (Table 3). Later application timing of glyphosate when plants have sufficient surface area to may be helpful at improving control with glyphosate (Table 3). In addition, higher glyphosate application rates than those typical of dryland wheat producers, and split applications of glyphosate helped improve control of rattail fescue (Table 4). More research is needed to determine optimum rates and timing(s) for herbicide application during fallow periods under a range of PNW agronomic zones. Table 3.

Herbicide effectiveness trials conducted in winter wheat under irrigated conditions indicate that potential treatments exist for control of rattail fescue in winter wheat (Table 5). However, no treatments are currently registered for rattail fescue control, and little work has specifically been conducted in dryland wheat cropping systems in the PNW. The effectiveness of potential herbicide treatments for control of rattail fescue in dryland, direct-seeded winter and spring wheat systems is needed to secure appropriate herbicide registrations in the PNW.
