“…Germination occurs simultaneously with them and for a fairly long period of time and matures at the same time as grain crops. These attributes facilitate the development and the presence in the fields and cause high losses in cereal yields (Santin-Montanya et al 2013).…”

Two field experiments were carried out in two successive seasons to examine the effect of weed management on wheat crop under saline condition and how herbicides can interact with foliar application with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) to improve weed suppression and enhance crop growth and productivity under salinity stress. Clodinafop-propargyl was the best option to attain acceptable grassy weeds control. Increasing IAA from 0 up to 150 ppm significantly increased number and dry weight of grassy weeds in wheat after 80 days from sowing. Application of IAA at 150 ppm recorded the highest number and dry weight of weeds. Clodinafop-propargyl produced the lowest values of number and dry weight of weeds as well as nutrients uptake by weeds when water spraying was added. While application of IAA at 150 ppm gave the maximum values of flag leaf area, SPAD meter values, number of spike/m2, spike length, number of spikelets/spike, grains number/spike, grains weight/spike, as well as grain, straw, and total crude protein, phosphorus and potassium percentages when clodinafop-propargyl treatment was applied. It could be concluded that using IAA at 150 ppm resulted in enhancement of growth and productivity of wheat crop when integrated with clodinafop-propargyl treatment under salinity condition.

“…Datura stramonium Lactuca serriola Rapistrum rugosum The annual distribution of rainfall may limit the effectiveness of the system used to control weeds, predisposing the specialisation of some species under certain crop conditions. Generally, the knowledge of the emergence process of weeds will increase the effectiveness of weed management, assuming an important qualitative advance in the integrated control of weed populations [39].…”

Dedicated production of energy crops on agricultural land is expected to be a crucial source of biomass to be exploited in order to achieve the renewable energy targets in the European Union. Vegetable oils are the main source for the production of biofuel; therefore, an alternative is to use oils from non-food oilseed crops. Oilseed crops examples include rapeseed, crambe and camelina.Most oilseed crops are considered minor crops and have received much less research attention in numerous areas, including agronomy, development of weed management strategies and determination of environmental benefits and production challenges.The use of these crops may be positive when all the benefits to the cropping system (mainly in terms of soil coverage and inhibition of weeds emergence) are considered.The strongly competitive cultivars and appropriate fertilisation are strategies used to develop appropriate integrated weed management systems. However, currently, there are few data on evaluation of oilseed competition with weed community in a semiarid climate.We conducted one study aimed at assessing the weed community in five oilseed crops: three rapeseed species (Brassica carinata A. Braun., Brassica juncea L. and Brassica nigra L.), crambe (Crambe abyssinica Hochst. ex R.E. Fries) and Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz. Seed yields, yield components and plant height of each oil seed species were recorded. We evaluate these species in two irrigation levels (fully irrigated and without irrigation) and three nitrogen fertiliser doses: 0, 75 and 150 kg N ha -1 .

“…The microbial population in soil is an efficient measure of soil health and environmental fluctuations (Avidano et al, 2005). Herbicides have been a suitable, economical, effective and perceived immediate weed control in agricultural lands (Santín-Montanyá et al, 2013;MacDonald et al, 2013). The initial form of herbicides was used during mass clearing of land to destroy all the plants (Hassall, 1982).…”

Increase in the use of herbicides in agricultural soil can cause multiple antibiotic resistance in potential pathogens that can undermine antibiotic therapy. The study shows the antimicrobial susceptibility of aerobic heterotrophic bacteria and fungi isolated from soils polluted with different herbicides. A total of sixteen (16) bacterial and twenty-three (23) fungal isolates from herbicides polluted soils were subjected to different antimicrobial sensitivity test (AST) using Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. Both Gram positive and Gram-negative antibacterial agents were used for the sensitivity test of bacteria, and a four of antifungal agents were used for the sensitivity test of fungi. The result showed that resistance to antimicrobial agents were higher in soils polluted with herbicides especially where two different herbicides (paraquat and glyphosate) were combined compared to the control soil without history of herbicides usage.This work demonstrates that prolonged usage of herbicides increased the rate at which aerobic heterotrophic bacteria and fungi in soil acquire antibiotic resistance.
