Summary

The study was conducted during 2005-2007 at the experimental field of Experimental stations in soybeans - Pavlikeni without irrigated conditions in secondary leaching on black earth in order to establish the possibility of an alternative control against weeds in soybean ( Glycine max [L.] Merr.) using allelopathic-mulching crop-oats. Relations between the two plant species, soybean-barley were followed in two factors: Factor A - the quantity of oats in the rate of propagation rate: a 1 - (Control manual removal of weeds, soybean monoculture) a 2 - (Control without manual removal of weeds, soybean monoculture) a 3 - 12%; a 4 - 25% and a 5 - 50%. Factor B - duration of the development of soybeans to emergence (VE): b 1 - flowering (R 2), b 2 - pod formation (R 4) and b 3 - technical ripeness (R 8). It was found that the use of oats as allelopathic-mulching culture in soy reduces the rate of sowing weed infestans from 33.0 to 66.0% and the cumulative amount of fresh and dry biomass (from 12.0 to 68.0%) of the group of late spring weeds, a disproportionate amount of the increased propagation norm; Weed suppression resolution allelopathic-mulching culture agrophytocenosa study is the result of limiting the density of some dicotyledonous annual weeds Amaranthus ssp., Abutilon theophrasti Medik. and Chenopodium album (L.), despite being down compensation processes in population density of Convolvulus arvensis L. uniformity in distribution of (J) - from -4.2 to -10.2; species composition (S) of weed communities is from 4 to 8 species, but in terms of their diversity (H) - from -5.9 to -21.2; complex effect of weed infestants and extent of the propagation rules of oats have a negative impact on yield of soybeans - kg/ha from 25.3 to 63.0 percent, the height of soybean flour (RCI varies from 0.11 to 0.35) and formed on fresh and dry biomass (RCI is in the range of 0.44 to 0.83) on the soybean, which can be offset by the reduced level of weed infestans in soybean agrophytotsenosis.
