Ecological correlates of weed seed size and persistence in the soil under different tilling systems: implications for weed management.
TLDR
In this paper, the impact of shifting from soil ploughing to farming with reduced or zero tillage on weed communities was discussed, and the effects of cultural activities on moulding weed characteristics was also apparent.About:

Is conservation tillage suitable for organic farming? A review
TL;DR: Conservation tillage covers a range of tillage practices, mostly non-inversion, which aim to conserve soil moisture and reduce soil erosion by leaving more than one-third of the soil surface covered by crop residues as discussed by the authors.

The role of seed ecology in improving weed management strategies in the tropics
TL;DR: Diverse crop production systems provide a wide range of examples to illustrate how recent advances in the understanding of the responses of weed seed germination can be used to develop new and sustainable cultural management of weeds.

Do microorganisms influence seed-bank dynamics?
TL;DR: A synthesis of the relevant literature available on seed microbiology is provided, which describes some of the major challenges and opportunities encountered when studying the in situ relationships between seeds and microorganisms, and present examples from studies by the ARS Invasive Weed Management Unit.
