The present study was carried out at Regional Research Station, CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Karnal, during winter (rabi) seasons of 2019–20 and 2020–21. In this experiment, ZT-wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) sown with happy seeder under surface residue load 6 t/ha (chopped). Fourteen weed control treatments including pre-emergence herbicide (pendimethalin 1500 g/ha), sequential applicatio...

The rice-wheat cropping system (RWCS) in the Indo-Gangetic plains (IGP) of South Asia with help Green Revolution early 1970’s greatly contributed to India's food self-sufficiency and livelihood millions peoplethus, became country's primary source food-grain production. However, deterioration soil health quality, ground water depletion, stress, labour shortage, introduction new weeds pests parti...

in order to comparing influence of ten vegetable oils for optimizing clodinafop-propargyl efficacy, a greenhouse experiment of dose-response including 0, 8, 16, 32, 48, and 64 g a.i. ha-1 of clodinafop-propargyl at eleven level of without vegetable oil and with vegetable oils of sunflower, soybean, canola, turnip, cotton, sesame, bitter almond, sweet almond, castor and olive in control of littl...

Lucerne has been found to be a valuable pasture plant for young sheep (Morley and Axelsen 1965; Reed, Snaydon and Axelsen 1972), but its value for fattening cattle has not been compared with that of grass legume pastures such as phalaris-subterranean clover. The effect of pasture species may depend on stocking rate, and perhaps influence the weights at which different breeds of cattle are ready...

Herbicide resistance in weeds is a global threat to sustaining food security. In India, herbicide-resistant Phalaris minor was the major problem wheat for more than two decades, but continuous use of metsulfuron-methyl (an ALS inhibitor) control broadleaf has resulted evolution inhibitor-resistant Rumex dentatus L. This review summarizes current scenario herbicide R. dentatus, along with its ec...

Phytotoxicity of parthenin, a sesquiterpene lactone, was evaluated against four weedy species (Amaranthus viridis, Cassia occidentalis, Echinochloa crus-galli, and Phalaris minor) through a series of experiments conducted under laboratory or greenhouse conditions to assess its herbicidal potential. Under laboratory conditions, parthenin (0.5-2 mM) severely reduced seedling growth (root and shoo...

A study was undertaken to assess the phytotoxicity of citronellal, an oxygenated monoterpenoid with an aldehyde group, towards some weedy species [Ageratum conyzoides L., Chenopodium album L., Parthenium hysterophorus L., Malvastrum coromandelianum (L.), Garcke, Cassia occidentalis L. and Phalaris minor Retz.]. A significant effect on weed emergence and early seedling growth was observed in a d...
