| The aim of this study was to determine the economic damage threshold of Pigweed redroot for corn regarding its density. An experiment was conducted at the Agriculture Research station of Islamic Azad University branch of Gonabad during 2006. The experiment was carried out as a factorial in a randomized complete block design with three replications. In the experiments, the factors included corn (var. 704) densities of 7.5, 8.5 and 9.5 plants m-2 and pigweed redroot densities of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 plants m-2. The increase in Pigweed redroot density, decrease in crop grain and biomass yield components such as ear length, ear diameter, number of grains per row, row number, grain number in ear, grain yield and biological yield of corn, decreased. Also, with an... |
