Upland Rice and Allelopathy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Upland rice (Oryza sativa L.) is mainly grown in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Yield potential of upland rice is quite low and invariably this crop is subjected to many environmental stresses. Further, when upland rice is grown in monoculture for more than two to three years on the same land, allelopathy or autotoxicity is frequently reported. Allelopathy involves complex plant and plant chemical interactions. The level of phytotoxicity of allelochemicals is influenced by abiotic and biotic soil factors. Adopting suitable management strategies in crop rotation can reduce or eliminate allelochemicals phytotoxicity. Rice yields can be improved by growing rice in rotation with other crop species. Allelochemicals of rice can be used for control of weeds in this crop as well as other crops that are grown in rotation with rice. This review highlights that present knowledge of allelopathy in upland rice is inadequate and fragmentary, and therefore, more controlled

Rice plants with an allelopathic effect on weeds can mean lower production To understand the genetic control of allelopathy in rice (Oryza costs because the need for herbicide application and/or sativa L.), quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping was performed using a population of 142 recombinant inbred lines derived from a cross hand weeding is reduced. Thus, inco...

متن کاملRice Allelopathy and Momilactone
Rice has been extensively studied with respect to its allelopathy as part of a strategy for sustainable weed management options. All available information indicates that rice plants possibly release unknown allelochemicals into the neighbouring environments. A large number of compounds, such as phenolic acids, fatty acids, indoles and terpenes, were identified in rice root exudates and decompos...

Plant-plant interference is the combined effect of allelopathy, resource competition, and many other factors. Separating allelopathy from resource competition is almost impossible in natural systems but it is important to evaluate the relative contribution of each of the two mechanisms on plant interference. Research on allelopathy in natural and cultivated plant communities has been hindered i...

Phosphorus (P) deficiency is a major constraint to crop production on highly weathered, lowactivity clay soils in the humid zone of West Africa. Past research suggested a linear relationship between grain yield and P uptake over a range of fertilizer P applied to upland rice cultivars. However, there is lack of information on how these relationships are affected by the long-term fertilizer ...
