Weed infestations and associated yield losses require effective weed control measures in soybean and sugar beet. Besides chemical weed control, mechanical weeding plays an important role in integrated weed management systems. Field experiments were conducted at three locations for soybean in 2013 and 2014 and at four locations for sugar beet in 2014 to investigate if automatic steering technolo...

Dean E. Riechers Corresponding author. Department of Crop Sciences, University of Illinois, Urbana, IL 61801; [email protected] Two studies investigated off-target exposure of soybean to plant growth regulator (PGR) herbicides and determined if simultaneous exposure to PGR herbicides and labeled soybean herbicides increase PGR injury. The PGR herbicides, 2,4-D, clopyralid, and dicamba, as well ...

This study was carried out at the teaching and Research farm, Department of Horticulture Landscape Technology, Akanu Ibiam Federal Polytechnic, Unwana, to investigate integrated effects organics (lime, Inoculum) mineral fertilizers, (single superphosphate muriate potash) on growth, nodulation yield soybean. The input omission trial composed 16 treatment combinations phosphorus (75 kg/ha), potas...

climate change phenomenon is an important environmental challenge of the world that has increased its speed with the increasing extension of greenhouse gases and remote relationship phenomena. changes in precipitation level, drought occurrence and in the level of surface and groundwater resources are the recognized consequences of climate change. in order to study climate change phenomenon cons...

ABSTRACT The knowledge of the adequate period for beginning weed management in lettuce crop can increase efficiency production, reducing costs with management. aim this study was to determine pre-interference (PIP), critical time removal (CTWR) and control (CPWC) three cultivars, Elisa, Lucy Brown Solaris. Coexistence absence weeds were evaluated each cultivar. design randomized blocks seven tr...

the complexity of the genetic control of drought tolerance makes inevitable using of molecular methods with biometric approaches to its improvement in plants. present study was conducted by 121 advanced lines and varieties of soybean under two moisture levels, normal and drought stress with 21 microsatellite markers linked to drought tolerance in two regions, namely, rasht and gonbad-kavous. gr...

The efficacies of Heterodera glycines-resistant 'Fayene' soybean and aldicarb for managing H. glycines were compared to the experimental nematicides DS-47187 10F, DS-47357 10F, DS-48145 10F, DS-48165 10F, DS-46995 10F and 5G, and DS-38697 5G during 1981-83. Yield of Fayette was greater than yield of the H. glycines-susceptible cultivar treated with nematicide in 1981 and 1983. Yield of aldicarb...
