Parasitic weeds are severe constraint to agriculture and major crop production, and the efficacy of available means to control them is minimal. Control strategies have centred around agronomic practices, resistant varieties and the use of herbicides. Novel integrated control programmes should be sympathetic to agricultural extensification while exerting minimal harmful effects on the environment. This eBook covers recent advances in biology, physiology of parasitism, genetics, population dynamics, resistance, host-parasite relationships, regulation of seed germination, etc., in order to offer an outstanding windows to these enigmatic plants, and contribute to their practical management.

Crop loss due to weeds has challenged agricultural managers since man began to develop the first farming systems. In the past century, however, much progress has been made to reduce weed interference in crop settings through effective yet mostly non-sustainable weed control strategies. With the commercial introduction of herbicides during the mid-1900's, advancements in chemical weed control tactics have provided efficient suppression of a broad range of weed species for most agricultural practices. Currently, with the necessity to design effective sustainable weed management systems, research has been pushing new frontiers on investigating integrated weed management options including chemical, mechanical as well as cultural practices. Author contributions to Weed Science present significant topics of research that examine a number of options that can be utilized to develop successful and sustainable weed management systems for many areas of crop production

La gestion de la flore adventice fondée majoritairement sur l'utilisation des herbicides est remise en question avec le modèle agricole intensif. Sous la pression de la société civile, les pouvoirs publics incitent le monde agricole à développer des modes de production plus durables, moins dépendants de la chimie. Cet ouvrage collectif explore des voies de gestion de l'enherbement intégrant tous les enjeux environnementaux.Il présente l'état des connaissances actuelles sur la biologie des plantes adventices, la diversité des techniques de gestion et les processus de régulation naturelle. Il est structuré en trois parties portant respectivement sur les connaissances de base en malherbologie, la description des techniques de gestion durable de la flore adventice et diverses études de cas. L'ouvrage reflète la pluralité des points de vue sur la flore adventice qui s'explique par la diversité des disciplines concernées et par les divergences de perception des effets négatifs ou bénéfiques de ces plantes sauvages des champs. C'est l'une des richesses de ce livre.Il s'adresse aux étudiants et enseignants de la filière agricole, ainsi qu'aux agriculteurs et aux prescripteurs du développement agricole qui pourront y trouver un ensemble d'informations utiles au quotidien.

Today, herbicide-resistant weeds dominate research and development efforts in the discipline of weed science. The incidence, management challenges, and cost of multiple herbicide-resistant weed populations are continually increasing worldwide. Crop varieties with multiple herbicide-resistance traits are being rapidly adopted by growers and land managers to keep ahead of the weed resistance tsunami. This Special Issue of Plants comprises papers that describe the current status and future outlook of herbicide resistance research and development in weedy and domestic plants, with topics covering the full spectrum from resistance mechanisms to resistance management. The unifying framework for this Special issue is the challenge posed to all of the contributing authors: What are the (potential) implications for herbicide resistance management?
