In order to study the effects of wild mustard competition and different levels of nitrogen on effective traits of wheat yield, this research was conducted in Ahvaz, south west of Iran. The study was consisted of a split plot experiment, on the basis of Randomized Complete Blocks Design with three replications. Different levels of nitrogen (90, 150 and 210 kgN.ha-1) were assigned in the main plo...

To assess the effect of non chemical management of weed control on forage Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) a field study was conducted in Varamin, Iran during 2010 crop year in a three- replicated- split factorial experiment laid out in randomized complete block design with four weeding levels (W1= one time cultivation at 3-leaf stage using a duck foot cultivator, W2<...

In spite of the large yield losses that weeds inflict on crops, we know little about the genomics of economically important weed species. Comparative genomics between plant model species and weeds, map-based approaches, genomic sequencing and functional genomics can play vital roles in understanding and dissecting weedy traits of agronomically important weed species that damage crops. Weed geno...

In a single experiment, field-grown Louisiana sugarcane was augmented with phytoparasitic nematodes, treated with aldicarb, or left untreated in both weedy and weed-free habitats to study interactions among nematodes, weeds, sugarcane, and sugarcane free amino acid titers. Aldicarb reduced three of the six phytoparasitic nematode genera at various times during the two growing seasons and was as...

a field experiment was conducted in research farm of isfahan university of technology, isfahan, iran in 2011 . various weeding periods were investigated on growth and yield of potato under drip tape and furrow irrigation systems. a split plot arrangement was used in a randomized complete block design with three replications. irrigation treatments were included in main plots and periods of weed ...

in order to study the effects of corn density and planting pattern for reducing herbicide application, an experiment was carried out in 2007 at varamin research station of plant protection research institute. the experimental design was a randomized complete block in a split plot arrangement with 4 replications. experimental factors consisted of planting patterns at 4 levels included one row pl...

Rice is an important cereal crop of global interest based on its daily uses. It was observed that the average yield rice low than potential production due to traditional growing techniques and weed intensification. Recently, intensification system (RIS) has emerged as alternative conventional cultivation system. A two-year field study carried out investigate impact seedling age (14, 21 &amp; 28...

Weed science has contributed much to agriculture, forestry and natural resource management during its history. However, if it is to remain relevant as a scientific discipline, it is long past time for weed scientists to move beyond a dominating focus on herbicide efficacy testing and address the basic science underlying complex issues in vegetation management at many levels of biological organi...
