- Intervention effect Seven weed species significantly increased biomass with potassium fertilizer.
- Intervention effect Canola biomass did not increase with potassium addition.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer increased canola biomass.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer increased flixweed biomass.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer increased wild mustard biomass.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer increased hairy nightshade biomass.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer increased round-leaved mallow biomass.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer increased stork’s-bill biomass.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer did not increase spring wheat biomass.
- Intervention effect Sulphur fertilizer did not increase biomass of any grass weed species.
- Association The greenhouse data suggest fertilizer can shift relative weed–crop competition when weeds respond more than the crop.
- Recommendation The authors recommend field testing the competition concept.
