Reduction of growth and reproduction of Cyperus esculentus by specific crops
Open accessAbstract
Summary: To assess the potential contribution of growing highly competitive crops to control Cyperus esculentus in the Netherlands, the influence of silage maize, hemp, winter barley and silage winter rye on emergence, growth and reproduction of this weed was studied in two field experiments. Growth and reproduction of C. esculentus (determined both as tuber production per plant and density of the weed in the subseuent crop maize) was reduced by each crop, compared to plots in which no crop was grown. In hemp, hardly any tuber production was observed. By growing a green manure crop after harvest of the winter barley the tuber production of the weed was reduced to about 40% of that in winter barley followed by fallow. Decreasing the light regime in a greenhouse experiment in the same order as was observed in the crops winter barley, maize and hemp, caused a similar reduction of tuber production to that found in the field. Therefore, it is suggested that competition for light is the main factor explaining the observed crop effects on the population dynamics of the weed. It is concluded that growing competitive crops as hemp in rotation may effectively complement chemical control of C. esculentus.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
