Journal ArticleDOI
Light transmittance, soil temperature, and soil moisture under residue of hairy vetch and rye
TL;DR: In this paper, the light, temperature, and moisture conditions under cover crop residue were investigated and it was shown that removal of cover crop residues is sufficient to suppress emergence of weeds but maintenance of soil moisture could increase weed emergence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of Cover Crops to Weed Management in Sustainable Agricultural Systems
Journal ArticleDOI
The quantitative relationship between weed emergence and the physical properties of mulches
TL;DR: Mulch area index was a pivotal property for quantitatively defining mulch properties and understanding weed emergence through mulches and a two-parameter model of emergence as a function of mul ch area index and fraction of mulch volume reasonably predicted emergence across the range of mulches investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response of weeds to tillage and cover crop residue.
TL;DR: Despite differences in weed density among treatments, weed biomass was equivalent in all treatments during the last 2 yr and total weed density increased after 1 yr of no- tillage and after 2 yr of conventional tillage in a 4-yr experiment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors affecting soil microbial community structure in tomato cropping systems
TL;DR: The imposed treatments were much more significant than soil temperature, moisture, pH, and texture in controlling microbial biomass and community structure in a tomato production agroecosystem.
