Analysis and modeling of the role of nitrogen competition in weed control
2020
This project challenges the question of reducing herbicide use, considering that a concomitant reduction of nitrogen fertiliser use and a better choice of the sown species/varieties can help to design more sustainable cropping systems. Combining plant ecophysiology, ecology, agronomy and modelling, this project aims at analysing to which extent optimizing nitrogen fertilisation and crop species/cultivar choice can provide new ways to promote biological weed regulation via plant-plant competition, thereby reducing herbicide use. This project will use an original approach consisting in feeding and then using a mechanistic model, FLORSYS, predicting cropweed community assembly as a function of…
Modélisation des effets des systèmes de culture sur la dynamique de la plante parasite orobanche rameuse en interaction avec les adventices
2019
Reducing pesticide use is a major challenge in agriculture and involves developing more sustainable methods that rely on non-chemical cropping techniques and biological regulations according to agroecological principles. Branched broomrape (Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel) is a root parasitic plant which infects crops and causes dramatic yield losses worldwide. Managing broomrape is complex because it requires combining several cropping techniques whithin a global weed management strategy because broomrape is also able to infect non-parasitic weeds. The aim of this thesis was to stynthetize knowledge on branched broomrape dynamics in agroecosystems and to aggregate it within a mechanistic mod…
