Effect of cultivation and within-field differences in soil conditions on feral Helianthus annuus growth in ridge-tillage maize

SOIL & TILLAGE RESEARCH, 88(1-2), 8–15.

By: M. Burton*, D. Mortensen & J. Lindquist

author keywords: soil organic carbon; soil organic matter; ridge-tillage; population dynamics; fecundity
topics (OpenAlex): Sunflower and Safflower Cultivation; Crop Yield and Soil Fertility; Weed Control and Herbicide Applications
TL;DR: The lack of difference in vegetative and reproductive characteristics between high and low SOC environments suggests that SOC (or the edaphic conditions associated with greater or lesser SOC level) was not critical in contributing to the observed distribution of H. annuus from juvenile to flowering stages of growth within well-fertilized, irrigated agricultural habitats.
