Response of Poaceous Weeds in Wheat to Post-Emergence Herbicides

Poaceous weeds are prolific and competitive in winter crops, but they are more insidious in wheat due to their similar morphology and growing requirements. Herbicides are effective and efficient tools of weed management, however, they are vulnerable to resistance, and herbicides with different modes of action might check the dominance of a particular weed flora. The current study was undertaken...

Isabgol (Plantago ovata Forsk) seed germination and emergence as affected by environmental factors and planting depth

Isabgol (Plantago ovata Forsk) seed germination and emergence in response todrought (Polyethylene glycol 8000) and salinity stress (NaCl), temperature, pH andplanting depth were studied in laboratory and greenhouse experiments. Base,optimum and ceiling germination temperature were estimated as 3.35, 21.24 and35.04 oC, respectively. Isabgol seed is rather tolerant to low water potential and high...

The Efficiency of Integrated Pre-Emergence and Post-Emergence Herbicides in Nutrient Uptake by Wheat and Nutrient Depletion by Weeds in Sesame-Wheat Cropping System in Khuzestan

In order to investigate the effect of pre-emergence and post-emergence herbicides on nutrient depletion, weed population and nutrient uptake by wheat in sesame-wheat cropping system in Khuzestan a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design with three replications in the research farm of Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz in 2019-2020. Treatments included no weeding, hand...

Development of Heterodera glycines pathotypes as affected by soybean cultivars.

The reproductive abilities of four races of Heterodera glycines were compared on soybean cultivars by using single cyst or mass inoculations. Progeny transfers were used to determine changes in reproduction of H. glycines. Reproduction of all races (1, 2, 3, 4) was best on 'Lee' and poorest on P1 88788. The size of females produced and numbers of eggs/female of the different races varied with t...
