Material and Method Field Arrangements A suitable ricefield was selected as the test plot. Before the field was ploughed, the border dikes were raised to 40 cm, and earth dams were built to separate the different test plots. Space for fish ditches and pits was left when the seedling were transplanted. After the rice was transplanted, fish ditches and pits were dug and a fish screen was installed at the outlet. Selection of Fry and Breeding Fish Fry that had a body length of 3-4 cm and were able to swim against the current were selected. Healthy, strong fish with shining body colour, no injuries, and a body weight of 20-50 g were chosen as breeding fish. Rice Cultivation Fish were stocked in the test plot 7 days after the early rice was transplanted. The fish were moved into the fish ponds before the early rice was harvested and returned to the test plot after the late rice was transplanted. Fish were harvested just before the late rice was harvested. In the test plot, water was kept at a depth of about 10 cm, and basal fertilizers and top dressing were used. No pesticides, seed treatments, or herbicides were used. 59 Agricultural Department of Zhejiang Province, Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. 60 Agricultural Bureau of Shangyu County, Shangyu, Zhejiang Province. 61 Agricultural Bureau of Huangyuan County, Huangyuan, Zhejiang Province. 62 Agricultural Bureau of Xiaoshan County, Xiaoshan, Zhejiang Province. 224 RICE-FISH CULTURE IN CHINA Fish-Farming Treatments Six different treatments were carried out in Shangyu County in 1986, and each treatment was repeated three times. The treatments were: (1) grass carp (5 250/ha), (2) common carp (5 250/ha), (3) nile tilapia (5 250/ha), (4) grass carp (600/ha) and common carp (3 000/ha) together, (5) long-term deep-watering for fish-farming, and (6) normal water irrigation for fish-farming. In 1987, three different species of fish (grass carp, common carp, and nile tilapia) were raised. For polyculture, 1500 fish of each species were used per hectare. For pure cultures 4 500 fish were raised per hectare. The control plot was the same as in 1986. No comparisons between fish and no-fish plots were made in Xiaoshan and Huangyan. Survey Methods Twenty clumps in the small plots and 50-100 clumps in the large plots were inspected for rice planthoppers, 500 clumps were examined for rice borer, 40 clumps in the small plots and 100 clumps in the large plots were examined for rice leafrollers, and 50 clumps in the small plots and 200 clumps in the large plots were examined for rice sheath and culm blight. Weeds were sampled at five locations (0.11 m2 each) in the ricefield, and records were kept of variety and fresh weight. Results and Analysis Control of Diseases, Pests, and Weeds Control of rice planthoppers. The raising of fry in early ricefields provided poor control of rice planthoppers; however, raising breeding fish provided good control. As the fish grew in size during the growing period of late rice, they provided good control of rice planthoppers. A survey on 10 July 1985 in Xiaoshan showed that there were 1900 rice planthoppers (third generation) per 100 clumps in early ricefields with fry, a decrease of 34.5% compared with 2900 rice planthoppers per 100 clumps in the early ricefield without fish. In ricefields with breeding fish there were 1030 rice planthoppers per 100 clumps in the early ricefields, a decrease of 64.5% compared with ricefields without fish. A survey on 20 September 1985 indicated that there were 2410 rice planthoppers (fifth generation) per 100 clumps in the late ricefield with fish, a decrease of 734.3% compared with fields without fish. Different varieties of fish had different effects. Investigations from 1986 to 1987 at the test plot in Shangyu showed that there was a relatively large difference (Table 1) in the control of rice planthoppers during the peak season. The ricefields in which only grass carp were raised showed the best control of rice planthoppers. The fifth and sixth generation planthoppers were decreased by 40.5% and 74.2% in 1986 and by 57.3% and 59.4% in 1987, respectively, compared with the control field. Polyculture of the three varieties of fish was less effective than pure cultures of grass carp. INTERACTIONS 225 Table 1.

  • Sagittaria Pygmaea
    Weed Science Society of America Sagittaria pygmaea Nomenclature: Family: Alismataceae Species: Sagittaria pygmaea Miq Common Names: pygmy arrowhead and dwarf arrowhead; zweig-pfeilkraut (German); urikawa (Japan) Bayer Code: SAGPY Description: Annual or perennial aquatic plant with short rhizomes terminating in tubers. Leaves all basal, linear or linear–lanceolate, 10–15 cm long, 5–8 mm wide, gradually narrowed to a sheath at the base. Flowering stems 10–25 cm high, few-flowered, the flowers in racemes. Pistillate flower solitary, sessile on the lowest node; the staminate flowers few, on pedicels 10–30 mm long. Petals white rounded to obovate, 8–10 mm long. Achenes 4 x 3.5 mm to narrowly obovate, compressed, and wide-winged on both margins, beak horizontal. Seed itself 2 x 1 mm, striate from the base, rimmed (Häfliger and Scholz, 1982). Numata and Yoshikawa (1975) describe it as a plant of warm temperate to subtropical regions. Sagittaria pygmaea Häfliger and Scholz, 1982 Sagittaria pygmaea Reed, 1977 Distribution: Listed as “serious” in Japan; “common (weed) in Taiwan;” and “present (as a weed but not ranked)” in China (Holm et al., 1979) Japan, Korea, Taiwan, China (Reed, 1977) China (Wang et al., 1990) China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan (USDA, 2008) G. Fowler, USDA-APHIS-PPQ Center for Plant Health Science and Technology Biology and Ecology: Sagittaria pygmaea is recorded by Holm et al. (1979) as a principal weed of Japan. In China, a combination of Juncellus serotinus and S. pygmaea reduced rice yield by 55 percent (Wu JingLun and Zhou HengChang, 2000). In Korea, S. pygmaea is among the most serious weeds of mechanically transplanted rice (Chae JeCheon and Guh JaOck, 1999) and in butachlor-treated rice (Park KwangHo, 1999).

A novel BIO for weed control and nutrient supply was manufactured and field trials at three rice fields were conducted for two years to evaluate its effect. The novel BIO was found to be effective in controlling grass and broad-leaved weeds in rice fields, with an average rate of more than 80% weed suppression. In addition, the BIO treatments significantly increased rice yield (16.3‒29.8% relative to control) and yield components (e.g., number of spikes per square meter, plant height, number of kernels per spike). Results from these field experiments have implications for farmers and government agencies in regard for accept ability of bio-organic fertilizer for biological weed control in rice cultivation. © 2018 Friends Science Publishers Keywords: Bioorganic fertilizer; Agricultural practices; Biological control; Weed Introduction 2004; Iqbal et al., 2009; Mushtaq et al., 2010; Qasem, 2012; Kato-Noguchi et al., 2013).

Poyang Lake, located in the middle reaches of Yangtze River (central China), constitutes the largest freshwater lake of the country. It harbours high biodiversity and provides important habitat for local wildlife. A dam that will maintain the water capacity in Poyang Lake is currently being planned. However, the local biodiversity and the likely effects of this dam on the biodiversity (especially on the endemic and rare plants) have not been thoroughly examined.

In Romania the species is also decreasing due to excessive collecting for pharmaceutical and cosmetic purposes, but it is still relatively common in montane nutrient-poor grasslands and successional vegetation of forest clearings on acidic soil. In this study we analysed habitats and population structure of A. montana in the Romanian NE Carpathians. We asked for differences in population structure between habitat types and how popula- tion structure is related to environmental conditions. We investigated population structure and habitat characteristics in 25 populations of A. montana on three 1 m × 1 m-plots each (total of 75 plots). The plot-based assessment of the population structure included the numbers of rosettes (rosette density), flower heads (flower head density), flowering rosettes and flower stems per flowering rosette.

  • Sagittaria Graminea (Alismataceae)
    Effects of Tidal Action on Pollination and Reproductive Allocation in an Estuarine Emergent Wetland Plant– Sagittaria graminea (Alismataceae) Yanwen Zhang1,2*, Lihui Zhang2, Xingnan Zhao2, Shengjun Huang1, Jimin Zhao2 1 Department of Biology, Eastern Liaoning University, Dandong, China, 2 Department of Biology, Changchun Normal University, Changchun, China Abstract In estuarine wetlands, the daily periodic tidal activity has a profound effect on plant growth and reproduction. We studied the effects of tidal action on pollination and reproductive allocation of Sagittaria graminea. Results showed that the species had very different reproductive allocation in tidal and non-tidal habitats. In the tidal area, seed production was only 9.7% of that in non-tidal habitat, however, plants produced more male flowers and nearly twice the corms compared to those in non-tidal habitat. An experiment showed that the time available for effective pollination determined the pollination rate and pollen deposition in the tidal area. A control experiment suggested that low pollen deposition from low visitation frequency is not the main cause of very low seed sets or seed production in this plant in tidal habitat. The negative effects of tides (water) on pollen germination may surpass the influence of low pollen deposition from low visitation frequency. The length of time from pollen deposition to flower being submerged by water affected pollen germination rate on stigmas; more than three hours is necessary to allow pollen germination and complete fertilization to eliminate the risk of pollen grains being washed away by tidal water.
