Ten wild plants (cattail broad leaf shoots, chokecherries, beaked hazelnuts, lambsquarters, plains prickly pear, prairie turnips, stinging nettles, wild plums, raspberries, and rose hips) from three Native American reservations in North Dakota were analyzed to expand composition information of traditional foraged plants. Proximates, dietary fiber (DF), vitamins, minerals, carotenoids, and folat...

Indirect effects of insect control strategies on weed populations are important to consider when developing robust integrated pest management strategies. Weed seed predation rates were investigated in corn managed under three contrasting treatments based on control practices for corn rootworm: (1) the transgenic crop Cry3Bb Bt corn, (2) the broad-spectrum insecticide tefluthrin, and (3) no inse...

Plot-scale field studies were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of steam for the control of cropland weeds in comparison with common herbicides. Weed densities, biomass, or emergence after treatment were measured. Steam (3,200 kg/ha, energy dosage equivalent to 890 kJ/m2, speed of 0.8 m/s) and glyphosate (560 g ai/ha) gave similar control (. 90%) of seedling common lambsquarters and seedling r...

in order to evaluation of seed production index in lambsquarters (chenopodium album), leaf appearance and yield of fennel (foeniculum vulgare) under inter-specific competition a factorial experiment was conducted in islamic azad university, tabriz branch, iran, during 2011-2012. treatments were weed densities of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 plants per meter row and its relative emergence times of simultane...

Abstract The development of glufosinate-resistant soybean cultivars has created opportunities for use glufosinate applied postemergence weed control. Four field experiments were conducted in 2021 and 2022 to ascertain the effect rate addition ammonium sulfate on annual control glyphosate/glufosinate/2,4-D–resistant soybean. An increased 500 from 300 g ai ha −1 improved common ragweed, lambsquar...

Environmental risks resulting from increasing application of herbicides have raised many concerns about human health and safety of agro ecosystems and environment. Hence, it is very important to find practical and effective methods for reducing the use of pesticides in environment as well as the increasing the efficiency of these compounds. Addition of adjuvants to spray solutions could be cons...

this experiment was set to study the allelopatic effect of aqueous and alcoholic extracts of artemisia, coriander, eucalyptus and cumin on growth of red root pigweed and lambsquarters weeds at laboratory and field in the university of tehran (karaj-iran) in 2008. the herbal plant samples were ground and powdered for extraction preparation, and were mixed with distilled water in a beaker. the ex...
