Intercropping is the simultaneous cultivation of more than one crop species on the same piece of land and is regarded as the practical application of basic ecological principles such as diversity, competition and facilitation. Field experiments were carried out on a sandy loam soil and a sandy soil in Denmark over three consecutive cropping seasons including dual grain legume (pea, faba bean an...

Good management models for postemergence weed control require good estimates of which weed density produces an economic threshold yield. Because intraweed competition increases if weeds are aggregated, weed spatial pattern may be an important factor for inclusion in management models. Mathematical models of weed–crop competition have demonstrated that this may be the case, but the small number ...

Lentil (Lens culinaris Medikus) is an important grain legume crop. Among all the biotic factors, weed infestation being adverse impact on growth, yield, nutrient uptake and economics due to lentil short stature, low branching, lack of protective canopy it’s unable smother weeds. Although, applying pre emergence herbicides, in many situation early control herbicides are not that much efficient f...

Parthenium weed is an invasive species of economic importance worldwide. Native to the American tropics, infestation ability a new habitat largely influenced by environmental factors. Despite invasion in Malaysia dated back 2013, investigation on its ecological behavior still lacking. Hence, extensive studies two predominant Malaysian populations were executed. In Petri dish seed bioassay, germ...
