Abstract
Field experiments on the reaction of 10 sugar maize varieties – Candle, Challenger, Comanche, Dickson, GSS 5022, GSS 9377, Jubilee, Shaker, Shimmer and Sweet Trophy to herbicides Milagro 040 SC, Maister 310 WG, Mustang 306 SE, Titus 25 WG, Dual 960 EC and Chwastox Turbo DF were carried out in the years 2004-2006. The herbicides were applied in recommended doses at the three ? four-leaf growth stage. Not all herbicides tested were selective to the sugar maize varieties. The herbicide that proved specially not selective was Titus 25 WG. Two varieties, Candle and Sweet Trophy, proved totally resistant to the applied herbicides. GSS 50 22 and GSS 9377 were the least resistant to the herbicides. The highest yield of cobs was observed after Maister 310 WG with Actirob 842 EC application. The lowest yield of cobs was observed after Dual 960 EC with Chwastox Turbo DF application.
