Response of Corn and Palmer amaranth to Mesotrione [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mesotrione is a herbicide used for the selective pre- and post-emergence control of a wide range of broadleaf and grass weeds in corn (Zea mays). It inhibits the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) which leads to stop biosynthesis of ...

Harnessing benzamides as plant stress inhibitors, growth promoters and in management of crop resilience—A review

open access: yesPlant Biology, EarlyView.
Benzamides boost crop resilience by inhibiting poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP) to enhance stress tolerance and, through their antimicrobial, herbicidal, and insecticidal derivatives, they offer broad protection for sustainable crop improvement. Abstract Benzamides have emerged as potent stress inhibitors and growth promoters in plant biotechnology ...

The Influence of Nozzle Type on Peanut Weed Control Programs [PDF]

open access: yesPeanut Science, 2017
ABSTRACT The increase in herbicide-resistant weeds over the past decade has led to the introduction of crops that are resistant to auxin herbicides. Strict application procedures are required for the use of auxin herbicides in auxin-resistant crops to minimize off-target movement.

Production Gaps Among Farmers With Disabilities Are Associated With Limited Technology

open access: yesAgricultural Economics, Volume 57, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT In sub‐Saharan Africa, agriculture is vital; however, the systematic exclusion of persons with disabilities from farming hinders sustainable development and social equity. Although several studies have analyzed productivity differentials across various dimensions of social exclusion, empirical evidence on technology access, farming efficiency,

Differential response of Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) seed germination and seedling emergence under variable environmental conditions

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S. Watson) is a eudicot weed that is considered as one of the most problematic weed species. It is reported to overcome several environmental and management stresses under field conditions. Research was conducted in a growth chamber and greenhouse to evaluate the effects of different stress parameters such ...

Peanut response following soybean grown full‐season or double‐cropped after wheat in North Carolina

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Including soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in the previous cropping cycle can adversely affect peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) yield by increasing disease incidence and populations of plant‐parasitic nematodes in the soil. The impact of double‐cropping wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and soybean versus full‐season soybean (referred to as the soybean

Peanut combine residue distribution and nutrient stratification across the harvest swath

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 1, June 2026.
Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production contributes substantial organic matter and nutrients to subsequent rotations, but residue distribution by harvest equipment is often uneven. This study quantified peanut chaff distribution across 6‐row combines at multiple sites in the Missouri Delta during 2023 and 2024.
