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.

Physiological dominance of the scion in shaping root architecture under suboptimal temperature

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Non‐optimal temperatures have become a major constraint on plant development under rapidly changing climatic conditions. Both suboptimal and supra‐optimal temperatures reduce physiological activity, alter plant morphology, lead to plant mortality, and ultimately decrease crop productivity.

Valorization of Zingiber officinale Roscoe leaf biomass: phytotoxic potential and chemical profiling toward sustainable weed management

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Zingiber officinale Roscoe is widely cultivated as a spice and functional food, generating substantial amounts of aerial biomass that is commonly discarded after harvest. Within a circular‐economy framework, this study investigated the phytotoxic potential of Z.

Spring sown camelina (Camelina sativa) contributes to the management of three summer weeds

Italian Journal of Agronomy
Camelina (Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz) is an attractive drought-tolerant crop for Mediterranean regions due to its rapid growth and ability to out-compete many dicotyledonous winter annual weeds.

Microbiological Mechanisms of Sand‐Mixed Soil Improvement in Continuously Cropped Soil

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sand‐mix soil is a widely adopted method for soil improvement in agricultural production. However, beyond the evident enhancement of physical structure, the mechanisms by which sand‐mix soil promotes crop root growth by influencing soil physicochemical properties and microbial communities remain insufficiently understood.
