Citations in the corpus
- Intra-specific competition in maize: early establishment of hierarchies among plants affects final kernel set (2004, background): “Early competition between maize and weeds, for example, recently has been defined as a series of complex processes triggered by light quality signals, which are followed by the development of shade avoidance characteristics such as a reduction in the root/shoot ratio and in the plants ability to abs”
- Cover Crop for Early Season Weed Suppression in Crops: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis (2018, positive): “If weeds are controlled at this time, crops can get a head start, achieve canopy closure, and compete effectively with later emerging weeds (Rajcan and Swanton, 2001).”
- Why Early Season Weed Control Is Important in Maize (2012, background): “Weed interference remains one of the major limitations to crop productivity in North America (Rajcan and Swanton 2001; Subedi and Ma 2009).”
- Maize–cowpea intercropping as an ecological approach for nitrogen-use rationalization and weed suppression (2015, background): “Maize yield reduction was reported to be minimum because of the weeds in soils with sufficient N contents than under soils deficient in N (Rajcan & Swanton 2001).”
- Planting date influences critical period of weed control in sweet corn (2006, background): “Determining the appropriate timing of weed control tactics is valuable in developing integrated weed managements systems (Knezevic et al. 2002; Rajcan and Swanton 2001) and has been the subject of extensive research in agronomic crops (Zimdahl 2004).”
- Weed growth and crop yield loss in wheat as influenced by row spacing and weed emergence times (2015, background): “During cropeweed competition, quantitative light components are changed relative to a weed canopy or mono-crop (Rajcan and Swanton, 2001).”
