Weed suppression and weed tolerance of wheat cultivars - relevant traits for Integrated Pest Management

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2014
An assortment of 10 winter wheat cultivars was tested for specific effects on weed suppression. Furthermore cultivar specific effects of weed infestation and weed control measures on the crop yield were investigated.

Kin discrimination in plants: overview and implications for population and community ecology

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following the discovery of identity discrimination, particularly self and kin discrimination amongst plant competitors, research on interplant interactions has advanced significantly within plant physiology and evolutionary ecology. This review synthesizes current knowledge on how both self and kin discrimination influence plant growth ...

Impact of Diverse Annual Forage Mixtures on Weed Control in a Semiarid Environment

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2020
Intercropping with different crop species and different spatial patterns is suggested to lead to increased competition with weeds and reduced weed abundance and biomass.

Regeneration failure, fire, topography, and climate interact to drive temperate wet forest landscapes into fire traps

Ecography, EarlyView.
Where early successional forests are more flammable than old‐growth forests, forested landscapes are vulnerable to shifting into ‘fire traps' through positive feedbacks, where fire leads to more fire. These feedbacks are amplified by increased flammability driven by climate change, the presence of non‐native flammable plant species, and slowed ...

Strategies for Identification and Mitigation of Sanguinarine in Mustard Oil Adulterated by Argemone—A Comprehensive Review

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Sanguinarine, a toxic alkaloid present in argemone, can lead to epidemic dropsy or chronic diseases through DNA intercalation and immune system suppression. Regulatory efforts face challenges due to economic motivations for adulteration as well as technical, social, and infrastructure barriers.

Cereal rye cover crop terminated at crop planting reduces early‐season weed density and biomass in Wisconsin corn–soybean production

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment, 2022
A fall‐established cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) cover crop has potential to provide weed suppression in fields that will be planted with corn (Zea mays L.) and/or soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], reducing the selection pressure for herbicide ...

The nitrogen dilemma: Toward a novel fertilization management framework for reconciling productivity and diversity in grasslands

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Nitrogen fertilization raises grassland productivity but steadily undermines plant diversity. Instead of applying the same rate everywhere every year, the PRISM framework is designed to rotate high‐ and low‐nitrogen paddocks across the farm over time. This spatiotemporal cycling aims to maintain farm‐scale productivity while creating periodic windows ...

Impact of weed control practices on weed suppression and crop performance in boro rice

Fundamental and Applied Agriculture, 2020
ABSTRACT Weed control is important to prevent yield loss and production costs, and to preserve quality grain. Therefore, a study was conducted during December 2016 to May 2017 to find out appropriate weed management practices in boro rice. Two boro rice varieties namely, BRRI dhan28 and BRRI dhan29 were included in the study.

Investigations on the weed suppression in sole and intercropped stands of winter peas of contrasting growth habit

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2014
Currently, normal-leafed long-vined and semi-leafless short-vined winter pea cultivars are available commercially. The weed infestation in pea crop stands is affected by both pea growth habit and cropping system.
