Periods of Weed Interference on Orange Tree Crops

the influence of nitrogen and weed interference periods on corn

abstract in order to evaluate the influence of nitrogen application and duration of weed interference on corn (zea mays l.) yield and yield components, a field study was conducted in 2004 at the ferdowsi university of mashhad research field. the experimental design was a randomized complete block with a factorial treatment arrangement replicated three times. nitrogen fertilizer was applied at r...

Weed Management: Implications of Herbicide Resistant Crops

Allelopathic Weed Suppression Through the Use of Cover Crops

There has long been observed an inhibitive response by plant species to certain neighboring plants. The Greek philosopher and botanist, Theophrastus, noted this effect from cabbage as early as 300 BC (Willis 1985). Since that time, others have documented similar plant interactions. In 1937, Austrian botanist, Hans Molisch, described this phenomenon as allelopathy, which he determined to be the ...

Effect of Plant Density and Weed Interference on Morphological Characteristics and Yield of Corn (Zea Mays L.)

Objective: Field experiment was conducted in 2009 to investigate the effects of plant density and weed interference on morphological characteristics and yield of corn (Zea Mays, L.) at Research Station of University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran. Methods: The experiment was arranged as split plot based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Plant density (D1, D2, D3 and D4: 5, 7...

Effect of Nitrogen and Weed Interference on the Quality and Quantity of Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.)

In order to determine the effect of weeds interference and nitrogen on the sugar beet growth and yield, a field study was performed in the 2010 growing season as a split plot design based on RCBD with three replications in Hana region (Semirom, Esfahan). Treatments were four levels of nitrogen from urea source as the main factor (0, 70, 150 and 210 kg ha-1) and weed interference at five levels ...
