Modelling Soil Water Retention for Weed Seed Germination Sensitivity to Water Potential

Autor: W. John Bullied, Paul R. Bullock, Rene C. Van Acker

Publikováno v: Applied and Environmental Soil Science, Vol 2012 (2012)

Soil water retention is important for the study of water availability to germinating weed seeds. Six soil water retention models (Campbell, Brooks-Corey, four- and five-parameter van Genuchten, Tani, and Russo) with residual soil water parameter deri

Autor: Peter White, Evan Elford, Rachel Riddle, Rene C. Van Acker, J. Todd, John O'Sullivan

Publikováno v: HortTechnology, Vol 31, Iss 1, Pp 14-18 (2020)

To foster development of Ontario commercial tigernut (Cyperus esculentus var. sativus) production, this study was conducted to identify cultural management practices that increase tuber yields. The agronomic practices of field preparation (hilled vs.

Publikováno v: Journal of Ecology. 105:930-934

Summary Intraspecific competition among crop plants is undesirable. Less competitive crops are predicted to increase yield and decrease the need for added resources. Wild plants demonstrate the ability to recognize kin and potentially help their rela
