We assessed the effects of cultivating two genetically modified (GM) glyphosate-tolerant soybean varieties (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) derived from Event 40-3-2 and a Japanese conventional variety on arthropods under field conditions, with weed control using glyphosate and conventional weed control for two years. Plant height and dry weight of the conventional variety were significantly larger tha...

in order to investigate the effects of composted manure and zeolite on efficacy of trifluralin in control of weed natural population in sunflower under different irrigation regimes, an experiment conducted in 2009 in tarbiat modares university, tehran, iran. a randomized complete block design in factorial arrangement with three replications was used. first factor was irrigation regimes that inv...

in order to investigate the effect of crop rotation on relation of seed bank with nightshade (solanum nigrum l.) weed seedling population during the growth season of corn, a field experiment was carried out in dasht-naz crop company in sari, during 2012. at the first, farm was divided into 2×2 m networks and the cross points was signed and all sampling were taken from those points. sampling of ...

this research was investigated to evaluate growth indices and competitive ability of two wheat ) triticum aestivum l. (cultivars in interference with two species of narrow and broad leaf weeds as two separated experiments based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at agricultural faculty of bu-ali sina university, during 2008-2009. in both experiments, alvand and sayson...

this research was carried out for evaluation of competitive ability of some wheat cultivars (triticum aestivum l.) of recommended wheat in dargaz region with common weed of feral rye (secale cereale). experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications in 2010-2011 growing season. experimental factors were included four wheat cultivars of says...

geostatistical techniques were used to describe the spatial distribution of weeds, under conventional management conditions and theirs effect on wheat biomass production over the course of one growing season (2008-2009), in a wheat (triticum aestivum l.) field at research station of shahrood university, iran. weeds seedling were identified and counted at 121 points of field based on two interva...

in order to compare different weed management methods in sugar beet, an experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during 2006-2007 and 2007-2008. the experiment designed as a complete randomized block with three replications. the treatments including: metamitron + fenmedifam, metamitron + fenmedifam + rotation, metamitron + cultivation,...

The effect of tillage, crop establishment and weed management was studied on theperformance of wheat grown after soybean at New Delhi, India during 2010-11 to 2011-12.Sixteen treatment combinations involved 2 tillage, viz. conventional tillage (CT) and zero tillage(ZT), two crop establishment practices, viz. raised-bed and flat-bed and four weed management,viz. isoproturon + hand weeding, mesos...

Weed emergence models and weed population models have shown to be important tools for decision making. However, there have been no attempts to integrate a weed emergence model with a population dynamics model to build an improved model with increased predictive capacity. In this paper, a method of integrating both types of model is presented and an application building a mathematical model base...

M. Brodahl U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, Water Management Research Unit, Fort Collins, CO 80526 Comparing distributions among fields, species, and management practices will help us understand the spatial dynamics of weed seed banks, but analyzing observational data requires nontraditional statistical methods. We used cluster analysis and classification and regre...
