large degree. We developed a classification based on visual inspection of the data on percent reduction in DW at the 4.0-dS·m −1 vs. 14.2-dS·m −1 treatments and this correlates to four clusters we noted from Table 1 . Photographs at harvest taken from

agricultural IPM consultants to assess grape rust mite populations. The rinse in bag method was developed to meet this need. Procedural aspects of the RIB method were examined and compared with both direct visual counts of mites on plant tissues and to ethanol

visual scale to determine the tolerance of squash to glyphosate soil residues. To quantify treatment impacts on plant growth, squash plant diameters were measured three to four times, beginning 7 DAP and continuing through the completion of injury

assigned a value of one and branching shoots a value of two. This was achieved through visual inspection of randomly selected aboveground shoots. Subsequent measurements were performed on the same shoot. Leaf orientation was measured as the angle from the
