Identification of Weed-Suppressive Tomato Cultivars for Weed Management [PDF]
Weed-suppressive crop cultivars are a potentially attractive option in weed management strategies (IWM). A greenhouse study was conducted at the R. R. Foil Plant Science Research Center, Starkville, MS, to assess the potential weed-suppressive ability of 17 tomato cultivars against Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri S.

The use of multiple ecological weed management tactics may be an effective solution to weed management challenges associated with reducing tillage. An experiment was conducted to assess how soybean Glycine max (L.) Merr.

Growing two or more crops together in the same area at the same time, called intercropping, is a well-known agroecological method of weed suppression. Cereal-legume intercropping systems are of great importance in increasing biodiversity in arable lands.

Weed Suppression and Tolerance in Winter Oats [PDF]
A crops ability to both suppress weed growth and tolerate weed competition is a key consideration when taking an agroecological approach to weed management. Amongst other cereals, oats are widely considered to have superior weed competitiveness yet studies examining competitive ability of oat varieties are rare.

Weed competitiveness in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has previously been shown to be positively associated with shoot biomass. This study evaluated the impact of increased early shoot vigour on the weed competitiveness of Australian wheats.

Common vetch (Vicia sativa L.) can be an alternative grain legume to faba beans, peas, lupins and soy beans due to its high grain protein content. As it is uncommon for grain use, cropping systems need to be developed. Weed infestation is a major problem

Size-asymmetric competition, in which larger plants obtain a disproportionally larger share of contested resources, can be applied in agriculture to suppress weeds by increasing crop density and spatial uniformity, as these practices enhance the initial ...

Annual intercropping suppresses weeds: A meta-analysis
Intercropping has been advocated as an environmentally benign method to suppress weeds in agriculture. However, it is not evident from the literature what size of weed suppressive effect is achieved on average by intercropping, and how species choice and crop management affect this effect.

Weed suppression by cereals: Beyond ‘competitive ability’
Abstract Much research on cereal‐weed competition has been directed towards finding cultivars that have high ‘competitive ability’ with weeds. I argue that this objective is insufficient, because weed suppression is usually the result of interactions among genotype, environment and management rather than direct effects of genotype ...
