Liverwort (Marchantia Polymorpha) Response to Quinoclamine in a Pine Bark Substrate

Altland, J. E., Wehtje, G., Mckee, M. L., and Gilliam, C. H. Weed Science 56:762-766. 2008.

Quinoclamine is an herbicide under development for control of liverwort, a weed common in nursery crops. With respect to liverwort control, quinoclamine has been considered to primarily have POST activity. However, some PRE activity has been reported. Growth media sorption studies with C-quinoclamine indicate that only 0.64% of the quinoclamine amount that enters the media remains unadsorbed and thus available to be taken up by established plants or propagules.
