Rhizoremediation involves the use of plants and plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) for remediation contaminated soil. This study evaluated Pseudomonas aeruginosa Eleusine indica to remediate cadmium-polluted Soil samples were collected around roots E. PGPR isolated their capacity promotion. P. was selected Cd experiment which based on treatments T1 (control soil), T2 (soil + cadmium), ...

The host suitability of five of the most common weed species occurring in maize (Zea mays L.) fields in South Africa to Pratylenchus zeae was tested. Based on the number of nematodes per root unit, mealie crotalaria (Crotalaria sphaerocarpa) was a good host; goose grass (Eleusine indica), common pigweed (Amaranthus hybridus), and thorn apple (Datura stramonium) were moderate hosts; and khaki we...

Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertn, commonly known as goosegrass or wiregrass, is a type of grass that widespread in many parts the world. The broad-spectrum herbicide glyphosate most frequently used Indonesian oil palm plantations to get rid weeds and other undesirable plants. However, improper rotation types by farmers has led an increased risk resistant weed emergence. This investigation tries vali...

The use of chemical pesticides leads to negative impacts such as pesticide residue problem and weed resistance. Thus, an economical and environmentally safe method such as allelopathy needs to be explored for controlling weeds in agricultural areas. Therefore, a study was conducted to determine the allelopathic effects of the aqueous leaf extract and leaf debris (incorporated into the soil) of ...

Experiments were conducted in the greenhouse to assess root galling and egg production of three root-knot nematode species, Meloidogyne arenaria, M. incognita, and M. javanica, on several weeds common to Florida agricultural land. Weeds evaluated were Amaranthus retroflexus (redroot pigweed), Cyperus esculentus (yellow nutsedge), Eleusine indica (goosegrass), Portulaca oleracea (common purslane...
