Chemical Characterization and Allelopathic Effects of Ambrosia psilostachya (Asteraceae)

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ambrosia spp. have been introduced and distributed across different continents as an invasive alien plant species. The present study aimed to identify the chemical components of essential oil isolated from different parts of Ambrosia psilostachya and evaluate the phytotoxic effect of its aqueous extracts on the growth parameters of Phaseolus ...

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

Nitrogen and weed management in transplanted tomato in the Nigerian forest-savanna transition zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Weed infestation and inherent low soil fertility are among primary reasons for low yields of tomato in Nigeria. Field trials were carried out during the wet season of 2015 and 2016 to evaluate yield response of tomato to nitrogen (N) application and weed

In Silico Design and Validation of a Novel HPPD‐Inhibiting Herbicide Candidate Based on Benzofuran and Arylthioacetic Acid Scaffolds

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
A benzofuran‐triketone hybrid emerged as the most promising 4‐hydroxyphenylpyruvate inhibitor, showing the highest predicted activity and strongest binding compared to the best experimental compound. Free computational tools guided candidate selection, predicted interactions with the enzyme, and confirmed stable binding.

Weed management in cereals with cover crops - do they help of hinder? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sustainable crop production calls for integrated weed management approaches. Cover crops (CCs) have been studied primarily in the context of soil fertility and soil structure but they might also supplement the weed management toolbox, particularly when ...

Development and Testing of a Low‐Cost Soil Moisture Sensor for Real‐Time Irrigation Scheduling

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective irrigation scheduling is essential for improved water management in irrigated areas, with soil moisture monitoring recognized as one of the most effective methods. However, challenges such as the high cost of sensors and the difficulties in monitoring large areas hinder their practical application, particularly for smallholder ...
