Potential biological control agents amongst fungi associated with the weed Zantedeschia aethiopica in south-western Australia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Zantedeschia aethiopica (arum lily) (Araceae) is a noxious weed in south-western Australia (1). Herbicides are either ineffective and/or inappropriate for its control in native forest and bushland.

Environmental benefits from carbon sequestration, canola production, and zero‐tillage adoption on Saskatchewan farms

open access: yesJournal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.
Abstract Greenhouse gas emissions from crop production contribute to anthropogenic climate change, while agricultural soils also sequester atmospheric carbon. Direct measurement of soil organic carbon (SOC) is limited by high sampling costs and the vast spatial extent of farmland.

The role of ecological weed management in reducing environmental pollutions and strengthening self-regulating agricultural systems

open access: yesآلودگی‌های محیطی و توسعه پایدار شهری
The increasing reliance on chemical herbicides over recent decades, although seemingly effective in achieving short-term weed control, has resulted in a wide range of adverse environmental consequences, including soil and water contamination ...

Optimising woody-weed control [PDF]

open access: yes
Woody weeds pose significant threats to the 12.3 billion dollar Australian grazing industry. These weeds reduce stocking rate, increase mustering effort, and impede cattle access to waterways. Two major concerns of woody-weed management are the high cost

Biochemical and Molecular Insights Into Monocrotaline‐Induced Hepatotoxicity: An Experimental Mouse Study

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monocrotaline (MCT), a plant‐derived pyrrolizidine alkaloid, is well known for its hepatotoxic effects. However, full elucidation of the mechanisms underlying MCT‐induced hepatotoxicity, as well as the development of reliable biomarkers for early detection and monitoring, requires an integrated evaluation of biochemical, molecular, and ...

Weed detection using unmanned aircraft vehicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In contrast to agricultural remote sensing technologies, which are based on images from satellites or manned aircrafts, photogrammetry at low altitude from unmanned aircraft vehicles lead to higher spatial resolution, real-time processing and lower costs.

Cytotoxic and Oxidative Effects of Common Pesticides on Hepatic and Renal Cell Lines (HepG2 and Hek‐293): Implications for Human Health and Environmental Safety

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern agricultural practices expose humans and the environment to numerous chemical pesticides. Increasing evidence suggests that commercial pesticide formulations may exhibit toxicological properties that differ from those of their active ingredients alone due to the presence of co‐formulants and additives. This study evaluated the cytotoxic

A Dynamic Optimisation Model of Weed Control [PDF]

open access: yes
It is argued in this paper that static approaches to weed management, where the benefits and costs are only considered within a single season, are inappropriate for assessing the economic benefits of weed control technologies. There are carryover effects
