Other claims from this paper (9)
- Association Wheat grain yield declined as pre-plant P. thornei soil populations rose.
- Association Wheat grain yield declined as P. thornei density in mature roots rose.
- Association Krichauff yield was generally more stable than Machete yield as P. thornei populations increased.
- Observation The P. thornei reproductive factor was generally lower on Krichauff than Machete.
- Intervention effect Aldicarb raised Krichauff wheat yield by an average 67% in highly infested fields.
- Intervention effect Aldicarb raised Machete wheat yield by an average 113% in highly infested fields.
- Intervention effect Aldicarb increased headed tillers, plant height, and grain test weight.
- Intervention effect Aldicarb increased kernel weight.
- Intervention effect Aldicarb did not improve wheat yield in soil with a low P. thornei population.
