Two of the many benefits of including legume cover crops in a fallow cropping system are weed suppression and increased soil organic N. This study was conducted in order to examine the effect of hairy vetch (Vicia villosa) on weed growth and soil N through a fallow period in subtropical Okinawa, Japan. Together with an untreated control plot, hairy vetch was grown from November 2007 to April 2008 and subsequently incorporated into the soil. The weeds were allowed to develop uncontrolled for 2 months until the time when a cash crop would be planted. In the period after the incorporation of hairy vetch, the weed biomass in the hairy vetch (HV)+ plot was more than threefold greater than that in the HV? plot. Hairy vetch had a high tendency to uptake N in April before the incorporation of hairy vetch; the N uptake by the weeds was lower in the HV+ plot than in the HV? plot. After the incorporation of hairy vetch, the N uptake by the weeds in the HV+ plot was two‐to‐six times higher than that by the weeds in the HV? plot. The C/N ratios of hairy vetch and the weeds in the HV+ plot were lower than those of the weeds in the HV? plot. More than half of the hairy vetch residue and N in the residue had decomposed by 28 days after incorporation. The content of both the NH4‐N and NO3‐N in the HV+ soil was higher than that in the HV? soil. Moreover, the amount of NO3‐N increased during the growing period of hairy vetch and decreased after the incorporation of hairy vetch. The fallow soil into which hairy vetch had been incorporated displayed a greater weed biomass and resulted in a higher inorganic N content than the soil that had not supported hairy vetch.  相似文献

Over the last two decades, the demand for organic products has grown rapidly in the world due to increased concern about side effects of pesticides on the environment and human health. Studies were conducted in organic lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) from 2004 to 2005 at the Black Sea Agricultural Research Institute in Samsun, Turkey, to determine the suppressive effects of summer cover crops on weeds. The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. Treatments consisted of grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.], sudangrass [Sorghum vulgare Pers. var. sudanense (Piper) Hitchc.], hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth.), grain amaranth (Amaranthus cruentus L.), pea (Pisum sativum L.) and bare ground with no cover crop. Weed density and total weed dry biomass were assessed before and at 14, 28, and 56 days after incorporation (DAI) of the cover crops. The cover crops produced between 1.2 and 3 t ha−1 biomass and grain sorghum produced more dry matter than any other species in both years. After incorporation of the cover crops, hairy vetch and sorghum treatments showed fewer weed species, and lower weed density than the other cover crops in both years. Hairy vetch, grain sorghum, and sudangrass were the most effective cover crops and reduced total weed dry biomass by 90.3%, 87.4%, and 86.9% in 2004, and by 88%, 86.3%, and 85.2% in 2005, respectively. Cover crop residue suppressed many broadleaved weed species but failed to control grass weeds. Hairy vetch treatments produced the highest yield, followed by sudangrass and grain sorghum. Yields with grain amaranth and pea were similar to that of the control. These results indicate that hairy vetch, grain sorghum, and sudangrass can be used to suppress weeds in early season of organic lettuce production.  相似文献

The apple sawfly Hoplocampa testudinea Klug has recently become a widespread pest in Croatian apple orchards. It causes severe damage in the blooming period due to the fact that infested fruit fall off.This article shows results collected over three years of field research on trap catches of sawflies, the period of laying eggs, the appearance of larvae and detection of damage. In the climate of northwestern Croatia, adult sawfly appear in April during the blooming period of the early apple variety of Idared.By monitoring temperatures from January 1, adults were detected when the thermal constant reached 210 day-degrees. Our observations showed that the larvae emerged when the sum of thermal constants reached ca. 110 day-degrees.The investigation of effective control strategies with insecticides showed high efficacy of thiametoxam (Actara), imidacloprid (Confidor), thiacloprid (Calypso) and betacyfluthrin + oxydemeton-methyl (Enduro) and lower efficacy of phosalone (Zolone), chlorpyrifos-methyl (Reldan), and lambda cyhalothrin (Karate).  相似文献

Summary In 1960Ceuthorrhynchus suturalis F., the onion weevil, was very abundant in onion fields in the south-western part of the Netherlands. PreviouslyLli (1954) in Yugoslavia andJancke & Nietzke (1939) andRogoll (1959) in East-Germany have studied this pest.Investigations on the biology and the control of the weevil in the Netherlands have given the following results. In early spring the weevils concentrate on the young onion crops, feeding on the leaves. Their feeding may cause serious damage to the plants (fig. 3). At a later stage of development of the plants the weevils oviposit in the leaves, mainly towards the tips. The larvae which hatch from the eggs, are free-living in the hollow leaves (fig. 1). They feed upon the leaf tissue with the exception of the epidermis, and cause transparent oblong spots, similar to those caused by the larvae ofAcrolepia assectella Zell. (fig. 2). The larvae pupate in the surface layers of the soil. After emergence the adult weevils remain for some days in the onion fields, feeding on the leaves. They then migrate to hibernate elsewhere.C. suturalis has only one generation a year.The young onion plants should be sprayed as soon as the damage caused by the weevils becomes visible. Plants in later stages of development should also be sprayed, if many transparent spots are present.The weevils are very susceptible to Gusathion. This insecticide should be used at a dosage of 300 g active ingredient per hectare. The larvae too are very susceptible to this insecticide (tables 1, 2 and 3); they are less susceptible to insecticides containing N-methylnaphthylcarbamate. The latter chemical has to be used at a dosage of 750 g active ingredient per hectare. To obtain a uniform cover of the plants it is advisable to apply the insecticide in a minimum amount of 500 liter of spray liquid per hectare and to add a detergent if not already present.  相似文献

Weed control is a major concern for organic farmers around the world and non-chemical weed control methods are now the subject of many investigations. Field studies were conducted in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) from 2004 to 2006 at the Black Sea Agricultural Research Institute experiment field to determine the weed suppressive effects of winter cover crops. Treatments consisted of ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum L.), oat (Avena sativa L.), rye (Secale cereale L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), gelemen clover (Trifolium meneghinianum Clem.), Egyptian clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.), common vetch (Vicia sativa L.), hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth.) and a control with no cover crop. Treatments were arranged in a randomized complete block design with four replications. To determine the weed suppressive effects of the cover crops, weed density and total weed dry biomass were assessed at 14, 28, and 56 days after termination (DAT) of the cover crops from all plots using a 50 × 50 cm quadrat placed randomly in each plot. After cover crop kill and incorporation into soil, tomato seedlings variety ‘H2274’ were transplanted. Broadleaved weed species were the most prominent species in both years. Total weed biomass measured just prior to cover crop incorporation into the soil was significantly lower in S. cereale plots than in the others. The number of weed species was lowest at 14 DAT and later increased at 28 and 56 DAT, and subsequently remained constant during harvest. This research indicates that cover crops such as L. multiflorum, S. cereale, V. sativa and V. villosa could be used in integrated weed management programs to manage some weeds in the early growth stages of organic tomato.  相似文献

This study was conducted in the Mediterranean environment of Central Italy from 2011 to 2013 with the aim of evaluating the effects of winter cover crops and their residues on weed composition in a cover crop‐tomato sequence. Treatments consisted of five soil managements (three cover crop species ‐ hairy vetch, phacelia, white mustard, winter fallow mulched with barley straw before tomato transplanting and conventionally tilled soil), two nitrogen fertilisation levels (0 and 100 kg N ha?1) and two weed management levels (weed free and weedy) on tomato. Cover crop residues were arranged in strips on the soil surface and then used as beds for transplanting the tomato seedlings in paired rows. Rotary hoeing was performed in the bare strips between paired tomato rows. At tomato harvesting, the weed aboveground biomass and density was higher in nitrogen‐fertilised tomato than unfertilised tomato, except in hairy vetch and barley straw that showed similar values. Hairy vetch used as a cover crop and dead mulch was the most suppressive species with the highest production of residues, while phacelia and mustard were not suitable for controlling weeds. The tomato yield was high in nitrogen fertilised and weed‐free treatments, except in barley straw mulch, which showed similar values among the weed management treatments. The mulch strips caused variations in weed species composition that was mainly composed of perennial ruderal weeds, while in tilled soil, the weed flora was dominated by annual photoblastic weeds.  相似文献

Neodiprion sertifer, the European pine sawfly, has in the past attacked mainly Pinus sylvestris. Afforestation of areas in northern Scotland with P. contorta in the early 1960s and subsequently has led to widespread outbreaks of N. sertifer on this species, attacks being most severe on trees 5 to 12 years old. The most serious damage is removal of the 1-year and older needles. Complete loss of this foliage often occurs at the peak of an outbreak. Also, at high population densities, larvae may consume patches of bark, leading to weakening and stem breakage in high winds. Field studies comparing protected (undefoliated) randomized plots of P. contorta with defoliated plots in Shin Forest (Sutherland) were carried out over the 1982–1983 growing seasons. Comparison of leaf/sapwood basal areas in undefoliated and defoliated plots indicated losses of up to 27% of total leaf area, both removal of old foliage by larvae and a reduction in current-year foliage being involved. Further, there were significant reductions in sapwood basal area and height increment between control plots and some of the defoliated plots. The impact of such defoliation is to prolong the rotation by approximately 2 years.  相似文献

BACKGROUND

Ecballium elaterium (common name: squirting cucumber) is an emerging weed problem in hedgerow or superintensive olive groves under no tillage. It colonizes the inter-row area infesting the natural or sown cover crops, and is considered a hard-to-control weed. Research in other woody crops has shown E. elaterium has a patchy distribution, which makes this weed susceptible to design a site-specific control strategy only addressed to E. elaterium patches. Therefore, the aim of this work was to develop a methodology based on the analysis of imagery acquired with an uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) to detect and map E. elaterium infestations in hedgerow olive orchards.

RESULTS

The study was conducted in two superintensive olive orchards, and the images were taken using a UAV equipped with an RGB sensor. Flights were conducted on two dates: in May, when there were various weeds infesting the orchard, and in September, when E. elaterium was the only infesting weed. UAV-orthomosaics in the first scenario were classified using random forest models, and the orthomosaics from September with E. elaterium as the only weed, were analyzed using an unsupervised algorithm. In both cases, the overall accuracies were over 0.85, and the producer's accuracies for E. elaterium ranged between 0.74 and 1.00.

CONCLUSION

These results allow the design of a site-specific and efficient herbicide control protocol which would represent a step forward in sustainable weed management. The development of these algorithms in free and open-source software fosters their application in small and medium farms. © 2022 The Authors.

Both uncontrolled weed growth and vegetation‐free orchard floors have been shown to affect coffee (Coflea arabica L.) negatively, but using cover crops as a solution has yielded conflicting results in different studies. In this study we tested the establishment success of three cover crop species under different management intensities and planting densities, as well as their long term weed‐controlling abilities and effects on weed community composition. Monthly manual weedings during the first 12 weeks after planting resulted in more rapid and extensive cover crop development compared with less intensive management. Transplanted Commelina diffusa Burm. f. grew most rapidly and controlled weeds by limiting light availability, but disappeared during the dry season and failed to establish at all on one of the farms. Arachis pintoi established and persisted for over 2 years, providing excellent weed control by outcompeting weeds for water and/or nutrient resources. Desmodium ovalifolium Wall required the longest time to establish and controlled weeds by an undetermined competitive mechanism. The sowing method of Desmodium led to intense intraspecific competition which probably decreased its effectiveness. Both Arachis and Desmodium led to lower relative abundances of grassy weeds and more perennial forbs, but total weed biomass was so low that these differences have no practical implications.  相似文献

Summary Dijkstra (1933) demonstrated thatSolanum dulcamara (Bittersweet, Woody Nightshade) can be a host plant of potato leaf-roll virus. It was, however, not known whether this wild growing plant in nature contains the virus. AsS. dulcamara is the only common perennial Solanacea in the Netherlands its role as a virus reseroir was investigated.At 25 localities plants ofS. dulcamara were collected, and tested for the presence of leaf-roll virus by transferring virus-freeMyzus persicae (Sulz.) after 24 hrs feeding to groups ofPhysalis floridana, where they fed for 24 hrs before being killed. All plants ofS. dulcamara appeared to contain leafroll virus, though they did not show symptoms. Also seedlings ofS. dulcamara from seed of a leafroll infested plant showed no symptoms before or after infection with leafroll bij transmission withMyzus persicae (Sulz.).The virus could be transmitted fromS. dulcamara to potato (var. Bintje) byMyzus persicae (Sulz.) and by graftingS. dulcamara on potato.Seedlings, grown from seed obtained from a plant which was shown to have leaf-roll, all appeared to be infected with leaf-roll. As so far no plants were found or obtained which had no leaf-roll virus, it is possible that inS. dulcamara leaf-roll virus is invariably transmitted with seed. But as the virus does not appear to be pathogenic inS. dulcamara, one might assume that what in potatoes and other plants is called leaf-roll virus, inS. dulcamara is an integral, natural component of the organism.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Azinphos‐methyl is the main insecticide used to control codling moth on apple and pears in Northern Patagonia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the toxicological and biochemical response of diapausing larvae of codling moth in orchards subjected to different insecticide selection pressure. RESULTS: Dose–mortality assays with azinphos‐methyl in diapausing larvae of Cydia pomonella L. showed significant differences between the LD95 from a population collected in one untreated orchard (2.52 µg moth?1) compared with that in a laboratory‐susceptible population (0.33 µg moth?1). Toxicity to azinphos‐methyl in field populations of diapausing larvae collected during 2003–2005 was evaluated by topical application of a discriminating dose (2.5 µg moth?1) that was obtained from larvae collected in the untreated orchard (field reference strain). Significantly lower mortality (37.71–84.21%) was observed in three out of eight field populations compared with that in the field reference strain. Most of the field populations showed higher esterase activity than that determined in both the laboratory susceptible and the field reference strains. Moreover, there was a high association between esterase activity and mortality (R2 = 0.64) among the field populations. On the other hand, a poor correlation was observed between glutathione S‐transferase activity and mortality (R2 = 0.33) among larvae collected from different orchards. CONCLUSIONS: All the field populations evaluated exhibited some degree of azinphos‐methyl tolerance in relation to the laboratory susceptible strain. Biochemical results demonstrated that esterases are at least one of the principal mechanisms involved in tolerance to this insecticide. Copyright © 2008 Society of Chemical Industry  相似文献

The effect of sub-lethal chlorsulfuron treatment of the annual weed Polygonum convolvulus L. on growth and survival of the folivorous beetle Gastrophysa polygoni L. was studied in a controlled environment. Treated and untreated plants were used in whole plant bioassays and in feeding experiments with excised leaves. Direct insect toxicity of the herbicide was studied by use of a Potter Spray Tower. The herbicide was non-toxic to the larvae when applied topically. Larvae fed excised leaves from treated plants did not differ from larvae fed leaves from control plants in terms of developmental time, weight or survival. This suggests that the treatment did not affect the nutritional value of the plant or at least that the beetles could compensate for any such changes. Chlorsulfuron reduced survival of larvae living on whole plants treated with sub-lethal dosages (8 to 67% of the recommended field rate). The mortality of larvae in whole plant experiments was dependent on herbicide dosage and herbivore load. Mortality ranged from approximately 20% on control plants to a maximum of 80% on plants sustaining the highest dosages and herbivore loads. It is argued that the beetles' response to chlorsulfuron-treated plants could be caused by a herbivore-induced plant response enhanced by the action of chlorsulfuron.  相似文献

Small (70 mg) Boarmia selenaria larvae fed for 4 days on avocado leaves or alfalfa dipped in aqueous diflubenzuron suspensions suffered from severe developmental disturbances. Similar results were obtained with leaves sprayed in an avocado orchard, with which, in addition, the considerable persistence of diflubenzuron under field conditions could be demonstrated. The substance was also active by topical application against large (500–600 mg) B. selenaria larvae, whereas by contact it was only moderately toxic. Some other non-conventional control agents, viz., the antifeedant AC-24055 and several juvenile hormone analogues, were of medium and negligible activity, respectively, against this insect.  相似文献

Summary In some gardens on light sandy soil in Ede a poor growth and yellowing of the leaves beginning with the lowermost ones was observed in peas together with root rot and reddish discoloration of the vascular bundles. The soil was heavily infected withHoplolaimus uniformis Thorne,Pratylenchus penetrans (Cobb)Sher andAllen,P. minyus Sher andAllen and aTylenchorhynchus species.The disease symptoms described above were reproduced experimentally by growing peas in soil inoculated withHoplolaimus uniformis.The other species mentioned above did not damage peas grown in soil inoculated with numbers five times as high as in the original soil.  相似文献

Summary On account of recent records ofDitylenchus radicicola (Greeff, 1872)Filipjev, 1936 in Dutch meadows, a study was made of its biology. Literature data were summarized.The eelworm attacks the roots of Gramineae and causes spiralshaped galls, which may contain up to 60 adults and some thousands of eggs and larvae each. Young larvae may actively hatch in water from whole, undecayed galls at temperatures around 17°C (Graph. 1). Root exudate of host plants did not stimulate the hatching process. The first larval stage is infective and may penetrate young root tips and also young galls (Fig. 1); it can withstand 2 month desiccation and also desinfection in a solution of an organic mercury compound. The host plant influences the number and size of the root galls (Graph. 2). Fig. 2 shows the anatomy of a young gall.The parasite is only found in grasses in this country and damage has not yet been found. Rye, wheat, barley and oats proved to be susceptible in inoculation trials; 17 plant species have been mentioned as natural hosts in different countries now and 3 are only found susceptible in inoculation trials.  相似文献

Summary The galls caused byPhilaenus spumarius have not been often the subject of investigation. The larvae of the so-called frog-hopper were very numerous in the summer of 1957 and caused deformations on many plants. Those may provide much damage to cultivated plants. In a number of plants the larvae cause galls, but they also can live free on the same plant. In this respect the galls differ from other galls which are indispensable for the development of their inhabitants. Such galls, which develop in some cases while they are absent in others are called facultative galls byMolliard.At the end of the article the plants are enumerated which are known to be bearers of galls of the cuckoo-spit insects in the Netherlands.  相似文献

The performance of three empirical models describing white bean yield loss (YL) from common ragweed competition was compared using field experiments from Staffa and Woodstock, both in Ontario, Canada, in 1991 and 1992. One model was based upon both weed density and relative time of emergence. The other two models described yield loss as a function of weed leaf area relative to the crop. The model based on both weed density and relative time of emergence best described the data sets. The predicted maximum yield loss (A) and the parameter for relative time of weed emergence (C) varied across locations and years whereas the yield loss at low weed density (I) was relatively more consistent across locations and years. Use of thermal time (base temperature=10oC) rather than calendar days did not change the overall fit of the model, but reduced the value of the parameter for the relative time of weed emergence (C). The two parameter leaf area model accounting for maximum yield loss (m) gave a better fit to the data compared with the one parameter model. The relative damage coefficient (q) varied with time of leaf area assessment, location and year. Values of q calculated from relative leaf area growth rates of the crop and weed were similar to observed values. The relationship between q and accumulated thermal time was linear but varied with location and year. As management tools, models based upon relative leaf area have advantages over models based on density and relative time of emergence since the level of weed infestation needs only to be assessed once, whereas density and emergence time require frequent observations. The ability to assess accurately and quickly both the crop and weed leaf area, however, may limit the practical application of models based on leaf area. The inability of empirical models to account for year–to–year variation in environmental conditions was observed.  相似文献

Weeds emerge throughout the year in agricultural fields in subtropical regions. The weed suppression and improved soil fertility resulting from a living mulch of hairy vetch were investigated. Hairy vetch was sown in October and in December 2006. The fallow condition was without the sowing of hairy vetch, with the weeds allowed to grow naturally. The biomass of the top parts (BOT) of hairy vetch increased from February to April and then decreased in May on both sowing dates. The BOT of hairy vetch sown in October was significantly higher in February, March, and April than that sown in December. Hairy vetch sown in October and harvested from February to April varied from 372–403 × 10−3 kg m−2, with weed suppression percentages of 62.8% in comparison with the fallow plots. The fixed C, N, P, and mineral uptake of hairy vetch showed similar patterns to its biomass. The nitrate (NO3-N) content increased from February to May for the soils in the October and December plots, in contrast to the fallow plots. Moreover, the NO3-N and available N of the October and December soils sampled from February to May were higher than that of the fallow soils. In subtropical agriculture, hairy vetch should be sown in October in order to achieve a higher biomass for suppressing weeds effectively and improving the soil fertility, mainly N.  相似文献
