Abstract
Panicum capillare L. (Poaceae) is an annual, dominant weed
of cotton, maize and other economically important crops of Lasbela
District of Balochistan province of Pakistan. The effect of P.
capillare competition on size inequality of well-fertilized and
irrigated crop of maize (Zea mays L.) was studied at a local farm of
Uthal area of Lasbela District. The traditional method
(broadcasting) of seeding of Z. mays was implemented during the
present study. Monoculture and mixture plots (1 x 1 m-2
) of P.
capillare and Z. mays were established with four replicates. The
plant heights of weed and crop were measured after 30 days of
seeding and recorded every ten day interval till the final harvest (70
days after seeding).
