Plants used for treating endoand ectoparasites of rabbits and poultry in British Columbia included Arctium lappa (burdock), Artemisia sp. (wormwood), Chenopodium album (lambsquarters) and C. ambrosioides (epazote), Cirsium arvense (Canada thistle), Juniperus spp. (juniper), Mentha piperita (peppermint), Nicotiana sp. (tobacco), Papaver somniferum (opium poppy), Rubus spp. (blackberry and raspbe...

Five different crude polysaccharides from guava seed (GSPS), bitter buckwheat (BBPS), common buckwheat (CBPS), red Formosa lambsquarters (RFLPS), and yellow Formosa lambsquarters (YFLPS) were isolated to treat human prostate cancer PC-3 cells via direct action or tumor immunotherapy. The splenocyte- and macrophage-conditioned media (SCM and MCM) were prepared using individual selected polysacch...

to evaluate the effect of soil solarization on common lambsquarters control (chenopodium album l.), an experiment was conducted at the research farm of college of agriculture, university of birjand.the factorial experiment was performed as a randomized complete block design with three factors including the number of clear plastic layers (uncovered as the control, 1-layer and 2 –layer plastic sh...

in order to investigate the effects of common lambsquarters (chenopodium album l.) competition on corn (zea mays l.) morphological and physiological characteristics, an experiment was conducted in 2005-2006 at the research station of agricultural faculty, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. the experimental design was split plot based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three repl...

Field studies were conducted in 2007 and 2008 near Nyssa, OR, and Pasco and Paterson, WA to evaluate yellow nutsedge and broadleaf weed control and potato tolerance to imazosulfuron. No injury symptoms from imazosulfuron were evident on potato at Nyssa, whereas in Washington, imazosulfuron caused some chlorosis of potato foliage ranging from 6 to 15% and , 4% at 6 and 15 d after POST applicatio...

Recovery of common agricultural weeds after burial by soil was studied in four greenhouse and three field experiments. Species studied included velvetleaf, Powell amaranth, common lambsquarters, barnyardgrass, and giant foxtail. Seedlings were bent over before burial to simulate the effect of the impact of soil thrown by a cultivator. Altogether, more than 35,000 seedlings were marked and obser...

The integration of pre-emergence (PRE) herbicides is an important component sustainable long-term weed management programs in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. objective this study was to evaluate the efficacy 11 PRE on residual control soybean. Field experiments were conducted 2018 and 2019 at Arlington Lancaster, WI. Herbicide treatments consisted imazethapyr, chlorimuron-ethyl, cloransulam-m...

Root discrimination of species is a pre-condition for studying belowground competition processes between crop and weed species. In this experiment, we tested Fourier transform mid-infrared (FT MIR)-attenuated total reflection (ATR) spectroscopy to discriminate roots of closely related crop and weed species grown in the greenhouse: maize/barnyard grass, barley/wild oat, wheat/blackgrass (Poaceae...

Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is one of fourmajor food crops in the world. Weed control is a major component in potato production and has been accomplished using different methods, including but not limited to the use of herbicides and straw mulch. A combination of preemergence herbicide and straw mulch may improve weed control; however, no information is available for combining both methods, alon...
