• Germination and seed water status of four grasses on moss-dominated biological soil crusts from arid lands (2006, unknown): “Many seeds are sensitive to light and in particular to the red: far-red ratio (Casal and Sanchez 1998; Batlla et al. 2000).”
• Structure of weed communities occurring in monoculture and intercropping of field pea and barley (2005, background): “Shading can also inhibit the germination of some species by inducing secondary dormancy in seeds, which could be caused by the modification of either the light quality by the canopy (Górski, 1975; Silvertown, 1980; Batlla et al., 2000; Benech-Arnold et al., 2000) or the amplitude of the soil tempera”
• Light signals perceived by crop and weed plants. (2000, unknown): “9) are enough to inhibit or reduce germination in several species, including Lolium multi ̄orum, Silene gallica, and Brassica campestris (Deregibus et al., 1994; Batlla et al., 2000).”
• Weed seed germination and the light environment: Implications for weed management (2014, background): “seeds should be exposed for an extended amount of time to a light environment that is subtly enriched with FR due to the presence of an incipient wheat canopy in order to produce an inhibition of seed germination, also suggesting a HIR (Batlla et al. 2000).”
• Environmental control of dormancy in weed seed banks in soil (2000, background): “Similarly, Silene gallica seeds that would not germinate in darkness were fully induced to germinate by light for 1 h under a sparse canopy, but germination was almost nil when the seeds were exposed to that same canopy light during the natural photoperiod (Batlla et al., 2000).”
• Soybean Canopy and Tillage Effects on Emergence of Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) from a Natural Seed Bank (2009, background): “Crop canopy can have a suppressive effect on weed seedling emergence because it dampens the soil thermal amplitude and alters the light quality reaching seeds lying on the soil surface (Batlla et al. 2000; Fortin and Pierce 1990; Norsworthy 2004).”
