Effects of selective herbicide treatment on weed community in cereal crop rotation

Individual and interactive effects of crop type and management on weed and seed bank composition in an organic rotation

We investigated the effects of organic and conventional pest and fertility management on weed cover and the seed bank community in an organic rotation. The study was conducted during the 4th and 5th years of an organic rotation on part of a long term organic-conventional comparison trial. Results showed that although crop type (potato vs. cabbage) in a single year significantly affected wee...

The Effects of Elevated Co2 and Temperature on Herbicide Efficacy and Weed/crop Competition

Structure of weed communities occurring in crop rotation and monoculture of cereals

A strict field experiment with crops sown in crop rotation and monoculture wascarried out in the years 1988-2012 at the Experimental Station Uhrusk belonging tothe University of Life Sciences in Lublin, south-eastern Poland. The study wasaimed at evaluating the structure of weed communities occurring in crop rotationand monoculture of cereals. The highest weed density m-2 was determined inthe s...

Selecting for Weed Resistance: Herbicide Rotation and Mixture

Herbicide rotations and mixtures are widely recommended to manage herbicide resistance. However, little research has quantified how these practices actually affect the selection of herbicide resistance in weeds. A 4-yr experiment was conducted in western Canada from 2004 to 2007 to examine the impact of herbicide rotation and mixture in selecting for acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitor resist...

crop rotation effects on the critical period of weed control in canola

background and objectives. integrated weed management approaches can help to decline costs weed control and improve its condition. critical period of weed control (cpwc) is defined as the best time for weeding. if cpwc is recognized we can accurately use herbicides and prevent environmental pollutions. beginning and duration of cpwc despond on some agents such as crop and weed traits, environme...
