Allelopathic effect of Argeratum conyzoides L. extract on the growth of aerobic rice (Oryza sativa) / Nazrin Faeiz Ahmad Fauzi
Rice is a staple food in Asia and one of the main problems of the rice production is water scarcity. Using genetic engineering, the common lowland rice was enhanced to withstand less availability of water for its growth. Aerobic rice can thrive on drought-prone conditions which are suitable for weed...
