Contribution to the plasticity of barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus-galli (L.) PB) in the saltI contamined soil
Šerá, Božena ; Gajdová, Iveta ; Nováková, Markéta
Barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crus - galli (L.) PB) is one of the major weeds, growing especially in the warmer parts of our country. This species was repeatedly found about different types of communications during a research of vegetation along roads and highways. Probably, the species has wide niche that allows it to exist even in adverse conditions, e.g. salt-contaminated area along roads. The aim of the study was to confirm that barnyardgrass can grow successfully in the salted substrate and how concentration of NaCl may inhibit its growth. Growing tests were carried out in a cultivate room on young plants which were grown in standard soil substrate with added sodium chloride (NaCl: 0.00 %, 0.12 %, 0.25%, 0.50%, 0.99 %, 1.96 %). The study found a successful growth of under- and aboveground biomass in substrates with lower concentrations of NaCl (to 0.50 %). In the substrate from concentration of 0.99 % a significant decrease of dry biomass and production of both under- and aboveground organs were found. Plant growth under different salinity stress is discussed in more detail in the text.
Biology, occurrence and control of weeds in crops of root crops
CHODL, Tomáš
The aim of the present diploma thesis is to widen knowledge of the chemical regulation of weeds in row crops. To establish the effectiveness of herbicides, we set up a small lot at a carefully chosen spot in the potato-growing region near Strakonice. We conducted a comparison of the effects of three herbicide combinations on two potato varieties (Red Anna, Laura). Two combinations proved pre-emergent (Afalon 45 SC+Command 36 SC; Sencor 70 WG+Command 36 SC), one post-emergent (Titus 25 WG). Subsequently, we evaluated economic costs on weeds regulation and suggested preliminary measures to be taken.
