Other claims from this paper (16)
- Intervention effect Glyphosate applications controlled weeds more effectively than conventional herbicides.
- Intervention effect One glyphosate application achieved the same weed control efficacy as two or three in five of seven experiments.
- Intervention effect Weed control efficacy did not differ significantly between glyphosate doses of 900 and 1350 g a.e. ha-1.
- Intervention effect White sugar yield did not differ significantly between conventional herbicides and two glyphosate applications.
- Intervention effect White sugar yield did not differ significantly between conventional herbicides and three glyphosate applications.
- Intervention effect At one location, delayed single glyphosate application lowered white sugar yield.
- Association Chenopodium album caused serious yield reduction at low densities in Russian locations.
- Association Amaranthus retroflexus caused serious yield reduction at low densities in Russian locations.
- Observation White sugar yields in Russian locations were about 45 % lower than German locations.
- Association At Russian locations, 50 % of maximum weed population caused over 80 % yield reduction.
- Method / resource Relative weed cover predicted sugar beet yield loss better than weed biomass and density.
- Intervention effect Primed seeds produced greater foliage area and dry biomass than unprimed seeds.
- Intervention effect In uncontrolled conditions, priming did not affect crop weed suppression.
- Intervention effect In uncontrolled conditions, priming did not affect white sugar yield.
- Recommendation The authors conclude glyphosate-tolerant technology may improve profitability through fewer herbicide applications and better weed control.
- Recommendation The authors conclude seed priming may benefit crop establishment under specific environmental conditions.
