Ecophysiological study on weed seed banks and weeds in Cambodian paddy fields with contrasting water availability

Abstract: Weed infestations are a major cause of yield reduction in rice (Oryza sativa) cultivation, particularly with direct-seeding methods, but the relationship between weed dynamics and water availability in Cambodian paddy fields has not been documented previously.We surveyed the weed abundance and weed seed banks in the soil of paddy fields with inferred differences in their water regime in 22 farm fields in three provinces of Cambodia in the 2005 and 2006 rainy seasons.We studied rain-fed lowland fields in upslop… Show more

“…Formation of a seed bank represents an important regeneration component for many species of this family (Leck & Schütz 2005). This result is in agreement with those of similar studies carried out in other tropical regions, such as that conducted by Kamoshita et al (2010), who observed that 86% of species present in the seed banks of 22 rice fields in Cambodia belonged to the Cyperaceae family. In a study conducted in Nepal, Bhatt & Singh (2007) reported that 37% of the species present in the weed seed bank belonged to that same family.…”

“…Various studies recently conducted in the tropics have been aimed at identifying weed species in crop fields, in pastures and in the corresponding seed banks (Silva & Dias-Filho 2001;Lacerda et al 2005;Begum et al 2006;Lopes et al 2006;Ikeda et al 2008;Isaac & Guimarães 2008;Andrade et al 2009;Costa et al 2009;Kamoshita et al 2010). However those studies were focused on agribusiness rather than on generating scientific knowledge for use in subsistence farming.…”

“…Moreover, the ability of vegetative propagation by means of a complex underground system consisting of rhizomes and tubers with many species having underground stolons is a competitive advantage of many species of Cyperaceae (Munhoz & Felfili, 2006). Similar results were reported by Kamoshita et al (2010) who observed that 86% of the species present in the seed bank of 22 rice fields from smallholder rice farmers in Cambodian were from the Cyperaceae family.…”

“…Research on identification and quantification of weed species germinated in the soil seed bank from cropping fields were carried out by numerous authors (Andrade et al, 2009;Begum et al, 2006;Costa et al, 2009;Gasparino et al, 2006;Ikeda et al, 2008;Isaac & Guimarães, 2008;Kamoshita et al, 2010;Lacerda et al, 2005;Lopes et al, 2006;Mesquita et al, 2014). However, greenhouse or field weed seed bank assessments in rice intercropped with corn fields have not been documented previously.…”

“…When farmers shift to DSR from TPR, the weed flora changes drastically (Rao et al, 2007). DSR fields are more species-rich with greater diversity in weed flora than TPR fields (Tomita et al, 2003;Singh et al, 2008;Kamoshita et al, 2010) due to simultaneous germination of weeds with rice in absence of standing water to suppress weed growth (Gupta et al, 2006;Pathak et al, 2011). Yield loss in DSR due to weed interference may be up to 100% (Singh et al, 2014).…”
