Abstract
Abstract Brassica carinata A. Braun is a non‐edible, oilseed winter crop for biofuel production that can diversify crop rotations and improve integrated weed management. The research objective was to evaluate the influence of B. carinata on weed population dynamics in the southeastern United States cropping systems. B. carinata was grown after cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L.), peanut ( Arachis hypogea L.), or a clean summer fallow, and winter weed pressure was modified with or without S ‐metolachlor. The emergence of Lamium amplexicaule L. increased at least 40% after cotton or peanut in 2018–2019 and 50% after cotton in 2019–2020 compared to summer fallow. Stellaria media (L.) Vill. emergence was increased over threefold after peanut or cotton in 2019–2020. Senna obtusifolia (L.) H.S. Irwin & Barneby emergence after cotton was increased at least 43% during both experimental years, whereas Amaranthus hybridus L. emergence was increased over 50% after peanut in 2019–2020 compared to summer fallow. Even without S ‐metolachlor, B. carinata reduced A. hybridus (>27%) and S . obtusifolia (>25%) emergence compared to weedy winter fallow. After B . carinata harvest, A. hybridus emergence was reduced >40% with or without S ‐metolachlor compared to winter fallow in 2018–2019. Overall, B . carinata biomass was highest after peanut for both seasons. B. carinata seed yield did not differ among crop history treatments in the first season, whereas in 2019–2020, the yield was higher after peanut (2417 kg ha −1 ) or fallow (2520 kg ha −1 ) compared to cotton (1710 kg ha −1 ). Weed management treatments were not different for B . carinata biomass or yield in any year. The results indicate that B. carinata can enhance integrated weed management strategies at the rotational level for summer crops by reducing seed banks of summer weed species, in addition to its potential as a winter biofuel crop for the southeastern United States.
