in order to study the effect of planting pattern and herbicide application on corn (zea mays l.) grain yield and weeds control, 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 l...

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...

A system to estimate the weed density between two rows of soybeans was developed. An environmentally adaptive segmentation algorithm (EASA) was used to segment the plants from the background of the image. The effect of two image data transformations on the segmentation performance of the EASA was investigated, and the RGB-IV1V2 transformation resulted in significantly higher quality segmentatio...

Six species of insects and a rust fungus have been successfully established for biocontrol of the weed Parthenium hysterophorus L. in Queensland, Australia. Effectiveness of biocontrol insects was evaluated at two properties in Queensland during 1996-97 based on an exclusion experiment using insecticides. Parthenium-infested plots with and without biocontrol insects were sampled at monthly inte...

introduction kermanshah province, iran, comprises an area, of 24640 km2 and is located between 33°37′-35°17′n and 45°20′-48°1′e. the average annual precipitation is 450 mm. most of the fields surveyed in this study lie between 542 and 1554 m a.s.l. among the factors decreasing the wheat yields, weeds have an important role. the results of some researches show that the weeds flora depends on cli...
