Tropospheric ozone is one of the major drivers of global change. This stress factor alters plant growth and development. Ozone could act as a selection pressure on species communities composition, but also on population genetic background, thus affecting life history traits. Our objective was to evaluate the consequences of prolonged ozone exposure of a weed community on phenotypic traits of Sp...

This study presents the proximate and mineral composition of Peperomia pellucida L., an underexploited weed plant in Malaysia. Proximate analysis was performed using standard AOAC methods and mineral contents were determined using atomic absorption spectrometry. The results indicated Peperomia pellucida to be rich in crude protein, carbohydrate and total ash contents. The high amount of total a...

In this study, we reviewed weed seed bank dynamic and main agriculture operations to come up with the management modeling designed increase crop productivity by removing competition. Weed contributing 10% loss of total global grain production. regulate five demographic processes seedling recruitment survival, production, dispersal survival in soil. The that interference are rotation primary til...

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 ...

Roger L. Sheley U.S. Department of Agriculture–Agricultural Research Service, 67826-A Highway 205, Burns, OR 97720 The impact of invasive weed management on plant community composition is highly dependent on location-specific factors. Therefore, treatment means from experiments conducted at a given set of locations will not reliably predict community response to weed management elsewhere. We de...

Comparison of the Diversity Weed Types in Oil Palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) plantations that have not been replanted and after replanting PTPN II, North Sumatra.". This study aims to determine composition, structure weed vegetation comparison diversity oil palm before replanting. used a quadratic method with purposive sampling weeds where plots were 1 x m size total 9 plots. The results this f...

in order to investigate the effects of row intercropping of bean (phaseolus vulgaris l.) with borage (borago officinalis l.) on its ecological characteristics such as weed and insect diversity, composition and density and their yield and evaluating of the best strip width, a field experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural rese...
