Cover crops (CC) are plants grown to provide regulating, supporting, and cultural ecosystem services in managed environments. Numerous studies have investigated the impact of cover crops on weeds. Winter cover crops suppressed both weed biomass and weed population density in spring crops, particularly early in the cash crop growing season. However, to effectively use weed suppression services from cover crops, ...
Weed resistance to herbicides affects the main rice producing countries in the Iberian Peninsula. Over-reliance on acetolactate synthase (ALS) and acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) inhibitor herbicides, as well as low diversity of cultural practices have increased selection pressure towards resistant populations. Recently, the emergence of weeds with multiple resistance has also been observed. In the Iberian Peni...
É responsabilidade das sociedades científicas, de que são exemplo a Sociedade Portuguesa de Ciências Agrárias (SCAP) e da Sociedad Española de Malherbologia (SEMh), organizar reuniões e encontros para promover a discussão sobre temáticas que se encontram no âmbito da sua Missão. Este fascículo especial da Revista de Ciências Agrárias é dedicado à publicação das comunicações apresentadas no IV Simpósio Nacional ...
The evolution of herbicide resistance in weeds has emerged as one of the most serious threats to sustainable food production systems, which necessitates the evaluation of herbicides to determine their efficacy. The first herbicide resistance case in the Iberian Peninsula was reported about 50 years ago, wherein Panicum dichotomiflorum was found to be resistant (R) to atrazine in Spanish maize fields. Since then...

A aplicação repetida de bensulfurão-metilo em arrozais dos vales dos rios Sorraia, Sado e Mondego seleccionaram populações resistentes (R) de Alisma plantago-aquatica (Mo260, Sa88, So306 e So307). Determinou-se o nível de resistência (NR= ED50 R/ ED50 S) ao bensulfurão-metilo em plantas com 26 dias (6 filódios lineares) e com 42 dias (6 filódios expandidos) e a resistência cruzada a 14 herbicidas. Confirmou-se ...
