Reconstructing the evolutionary history of herbaceous crops through trait‐based ecology
American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Reconstructing the evolution of crop plants is fundamental to understanding their origins, ecological adaptations, and impacts on ecosystem processes. However, our understanding of crop evolution stems largely from archaeology and genetics, with less focus on a trait‐based ecological approach.

Competitiveness of winter wheat stands against weeds: Effects of cultivar choice, row width and drilling direction [PDF]
, 2002 The need for competitive crop stands can be regarded as a basic requirement for weed control, potentially reducing the need for direct control measures. One way the crop may suppress weed growth is by the restriction of light through crop shading.
