Wheat is a staple grain crop in the United States and around the world. Weed infestation, particularly grass weeds, poses significant challenges to wheat production, competing for resources and reducing grain yield and quality. Effective weed management practices, including early identification and targeted herbicide application are essential to av...
Spot spraying applications offer the opportunity to target specific weeds in a field, while simultaneously reducing herbicide usage and increasing the long‐term efficacy of chemical control options. The study is focused on controlling California weedy rice accessions (Oryza spp.) and problematic grass weeds with a spot spray application of clethodi...
Weedy species invasions are a huge problem in rangeland and natural areas as they degrade the quality and quantity of forage for livestock and reduce biodiversity. Weed suppression using native grasses is an ecologically driven method of weed management, representing an opportunity for low-input and management over long temporal scales if these sys...
“Weedy” red rice is a problematic weed due to its phenotypic similarities with cultivated rice. Limited herbicide availability has driven a need for non-chemical control options for managing this pest. One pre-planting strategy that is being explored is the stale seedbed methodology which aims to maximize soil seedbank withdrawals via germination....
BACKGROUND
Weeds are a significant barrier to rice production in California, exacerbated by lack of chemical control options and herbicide‐resistance in persistent aquaphilic species. Oxyfluorfen‐tolerant rice, created at the Rice Experiment Station (RES) in Biggs, California, was developed to provide an agronomic program for managing problematic g...
Weedy rice ( Oryza sativa f. spontanea Roshev.) has recently become a significant botanical pest in California rice ( Oryza sativa L.) production systems. The conspecificity of this pest with cultivated rice, Oryza sativa (L.), negates the use of selective herbicides, rendering the development of non-chemical methods a necessary component of creati...
Glyphosate has been widely used to control annual, perennial, and biennial weeds including Conyza species. Conyza sumatrensis (Sumatran fleabane) is considered a highly invasive and troublesome weed worldwide, including in European and Mediterranean regions. In Turkey, the use of glyphosate in orchards has recently increased; however, extensive use...
