Annual wormwood (Artemisia annua L.) interferes with soybean (Glycine
max L.) crop growth and yield through competition and allelopathy. Allelochemicals
released by the weed may affect the crop directly or indirectly through
nitrogen fixing simbionts (Bradyrhizobium
japonicum). Crop management imposes stress in the plants that can enhance the amount
and the physiological effects of allelochemicals produced by them . The
objectives of this work were (i) to study allelopathic and competitive
interferences between annual
wormwood and soybean crop under field conditions (ii) to describe the crop
response to weed interference using non linear models and (iii) to analyze the
relative change of competition and allelopathy of plants under sublethal doses of herbicides . Two split plot
field experiments with three replications were used. Different weed-crop
density levels (competition) were assigned to the main plots while allelopathy
(with and reduced) and herbicide (with and without) levels were assigned to the
sub-plots. The best descriptions for the
soybean biomass/ relative weed biomass and soybean yield/ relative weed biomass
relationships at maturity were obtained with the exponential and logistic
models respectively. Without herbicide, soybean yield decreased in response to the increase of relative
biomass of wormwood when allelopathy was reduced. With allelopathy, soybean
yield remained stable as weed relative biomass increased and nodules were
larger than without allelopathy. In contrast, with herbicide application a different relationship between soybean yield and
relative biomass was observed in plots with
allelopathy and reduced allelopathy. The highest allocation to grain yield was
attained without herbicide and with
allelochemicals.
