The present investigation was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of some herbicides in control of dodder (Cuscuta monogyna Vahl.) and some other weeds in vineyards. The experiment was conducted at a highly dodder infested vine yard of Mashhad during 2012-213. Treatments were laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Treatments were consisted of pendimethalin (stomp EC33%) 4 and 5 Lha-1, Imazethapyr (pursuit SL10%) 0.7 and 1 Lha-1, propyzamide (kerb WP500) 1.5, 2 and 2.5 Kgha-1, ethofumesate (SC42%) 1.5, 2 and 2.5 Lha-1.Weedy treatment was included. Weeds dry matter and number, dodder number and dry matter, EWRC and grape yield were recorded. The results showed that 95% reduction in dry matter of dodder was observed subsequent to application of 4 and 5 Lha-1 of Pendimetahline . Maximum effect on weeds dry matter were observed with application of 5 Lha-1 of pendimetaline (69% reduction compared to weedy plots). 1.5 and 2 Lha-1 application of propyzamide did not significantly affected this trait. Except pendimetaline and propyzamide (4.5 Lha-1), all other treatments adversely affected Grape plants (3.27-20.3% based on EWRC). Concerning grape yield, no significant difference was observed among treatments. Key words:
