Abstract:We have found some characteristics associated with competitiveness that can be used to identify potato (Solanum tuberosum) genotypes able to maintain high yields in the presence of weeds. A 2-year field experiment was carried out to assess the competitive ability (Cb) of six potato cultivars grown as pure stands and in mixture with a natural weed infestation partially suppressed by mechanical weed control. The treatments were arranged in a split-plot design in a randomised complete block replicated three times… Show more
