Competition studies in field trials were conducted between common purslane (Portulaca oleraceaL.) and table beets (Beta vulgarisL., var. Detroit Red) and between common purslane and snap beans (Phaseolus vulgarisL., var. Eastern Butter). Common purslane control was most critical during the first 2 weeks after beet and bean emergence. Common purslane control for longer than 2 weeks did not increase beet or bean yields. The longer common purslane was allowed to compete after beet or bean emergence, the more yields were decreased. Common purslane was a stronger competitor in beets than in beans. The faster and taller-growing bean plants provided more competition than did beets. Cultivation between rows until lay-by increased both beet and bean yields.

Greenhouse and field experiments were conducted to confirm and quantify linuron resistance in common purslane (Portulaca oleracea) collected from a carrot (Daucus carota) field in Imlay City, MI. Preliminary evaluation was made using a flotation test kit to identify resistance to linuron and atrazine. Subsequent greenhouse experiments indicated that this common purslane was resistant to 11.2 kg/ha linuron and 179 kg/ha atrazine. The resistance ratio for linuron was > 300 and was > 400 for atrazine. The resistant common purslane was also highly resistant to diuron, cyanazine, and prometryn but had a low level of negative cross-resistance to bromoxynil. Both resistant and susceptible biotypes of common purslane were sensitive to hexazinone and bentazon.

Dark-incubated common purslane(Portulaca oleraceaL.) seed synthesize very little protein and essentially no nucleic acids. Dark-incubated seed incorporate only 14 × 10−3nmoles14C-leucine/mg protein/12-h dark. In contrast, seed exposed to 12-h light following 24-h dark incubation incorporate 365 × 10−3-nmoles14C-leucine/mg protein/12-h light. Once dormancy is broken by exposure of seed to light, initiation of radicle protrusion occurs at 12 h. Protein synthesis gradually increases with time in the light and precedes nucleic acid synthesis which is associated with radicle protrusion. During the 12-h lag period preceding radicle protrusion protein synthesis increases significantly by 3 to 9 h in light, RNA synthesis by 9 h in light, and DNA synthesis by 12 h in light. After 12 h in light,32P can be detected in all nucleic acid fractions, DNA and RNAs.

A collection of common purslane(Portulaca oleraceaL.) ecotypes from various locations around the world was assembled at the University of Illinois. Applications of nitrofen (2,4-dichlorophenyl-p-nitrophenyl ether) to the various ecotypes showed that 3 of the 26 ecotypes [India, Mexico, and Florida (Sanford)] exhibited some degree of tolerance. This marginal tolerance rapidly disappeared as the rate of nitrofen increased beyond 0.56 kg/ha. All of the ecotypes tested were susceptible to applications of oxyfluorfen [2-chloro-2-(3-ethoxy-4-nitrophenoxy)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene]. Oxyfluorfen was toxic to common purslane plants at rates as low as 5 g/ha. Treatment of ‘Hybelle’ (tolerant) and ‘Rio Verde’ (susceptible) cabbage(Brassica oleracevar.capitataL.) cultivars with 3.36 kg/ha nitrofen reduced plant fresh weight to 82% and 62%, respectively, of control. Oxyfluorfen at 0.15 kg/ha reduced fresh weight to 60% and 27% for Hybelle and Rio Verde, respectively. Applications of nitrofen at 3.36 kg/ha reduced plant fresh weight in Hybelle the same amount as 100 g/ha oxyfluorfen and 70 g/ha in Rio Verde.
