In this study, we reviewed weed seed bank dynamic and main agriculture operations to come up with the management modeling designed increase crop productivity by removing competition. Weed contributing 10% loss of total global grain production. regulate five demographic processes seedling recruitment survival, production, dispersal survival in soil. The that interference are rotation primary til...

Maize (Zea maize L.) is one of the major cereal crop produced worldwide after wheat and rice mainly as food for human animal feed .maize most sensitive to weed competition during its early growth stage control an important management practice production that should be carried out ensure optimum grain yield. Weeds compete with corn plants resources such light, nutrients, space, moisture, water, ...

Plant-soil feedback (PSF) and plant competition play an important role in structuring vegetation composition, but their interaction remains unclear. Recent studies suggest that competing plants could dilute pathogenic effects, whereas the standing view is that competition may increase the sensitivity of the focal plant to PSF. In agro-ecosystems each of these two options would yield contrasting...

The differential weed-competitive abilities of eight rice genotypes and the traits that may confer such attributes were investigated under partial weedy and weed-free conditions in naturally occurring weed flora in dry direct-seeded rice during the rainy seasons of 2011 and 2012 at Ludhiana, Punjab, India. The results showed genotypic differences in competitiveness against weeds. In weed-free p...

Weeds are a key component of agroecosystems and compete with crop plants. Crop-weed competition has been widely investigated over the past decades, although how functional traits mediate these competitive interactions rarely explored. In this study, we measured in 4400 individual plants belonging to 32 weed species, growing among four crops differing traits. We assessed intraspecific variation ...
