Abstract
The objective of this research was to determine whether spring wheat varieties differ in their ability to compete against weeds. Specifically, we wanted to determine whether the competitive ability rankings of cultivars obtained by using model weeds translate into cultivar differences under field conditions with “real” weeds. The ultimate long-term goal is to use information from this study to identify cultivars, experimental wheat lines and possibly, breeding populations that are better suited for production in systems that are less reliant on pesticides for weed control (e.g., organic conditions).
