| Abstract : Two simple experiments were conducated, the first was carried out in Hawi Kanessa ( Mosul city) on 20/June / 2008 in Alfalfa field contain two type of Dodder Cuscuta chinenss and Cuscuta planiflora , the experiment was include four treatment , glyophosate 100 , 200 g a.i / ha ,hand pulling , check ) . The experiment was laid out as a Randomize Complete Block design with three replicates , The plants of alfalfa were clipping at 5 cm height , the herbicide was applied when the plants reached 15 cm height . The second one was carried out in Aljamasa section ( Mosul city) at 21/June / 2008 in field of alfalfa include two type of Dodder plants . The experiment included four treatments ( flaming , praquat herbicide 300 g ai /ha , Hand pulling and check treatment ) The experiment was laid out as a Randomize Complete Block design with three replicates . The hand pulling treatment surpass on all treatments for all characterstics stadied which gave a significant higher value ( 1535.99 kg/ ha , 324.32 kg / ha) as compared with the glyophosat 100 , 200 g / ha and check treatment which gave 18.52 , 22.01 and 30.55 % for dry weight of alfalfa and 33.49 , 30.61 and 94.20 for seed yield production . Glyophosate had a dramatic reduction in all dodder characterstics as compared with check treatment . No significant differences obtaind between glyophosate 100 g/ ha and 200 g/ ha in all characters except dry weight of dodder at harvest time . All treatment led to a significant differensin the dry weight of alfalfa and seed production compared with the check . The hand pulling surpass on all treatments in growth characters of alfalfa exept paraquat treatment in number in branch , total yield and leaf area .The hand pulling and flaming and paraquat ssurpass on check treatment which gave 151.17 , 90.35 and 192.28 % respectively. | ||
