Preliminary studies regarding some allelopathic interactions in vegetables intercropping systems

Abstract

The paper presents a summary of the scientific and technical achievements regarding the allelopathic phenomenon and its application in the weed management of different culture systems. The paper is particularly referring to the definition and content of the allelopathy phenomenon as well as on how it operates on different agricultural crops. Particular emphasis is on the use of allealopathy in ecological vegetable crops. Research has highlighted the main species with allelopathic reaction that are used in different vegetable crops. Thorough researches has taken into account the biochemical and physiological mechanisms by which the allelopathic phenomenon is manifested at the level of culture plants. The optimization of some practices for efficient use of solutions in weed management is of great importance.
