Abstract:
      Weed survey was conducted by the method of inverte d W-sampling to determine the composition of species and structure of weed comm unities in conservation tillage system in Qinghai Province. The results showed t hat there were 67 weed species belonging to 25 families in conservation tillage fields. The predominant species were Elsholtzia densa Benth, Galium maborasense Masamune, Avena fatua Linn, Chenopodium album L., Sonchus arvensis Linn and Cephalanoplos setosum (Willd.) Kitam. There were 5 species o f regional predominant weeds, 17 common weeds and 39 general weeds. Weed communi ties were dominated by Galium maborasense Masamune + Elsholtzia densa Be nth + Chenopodium album L. + Avena fatua L. + Cephalanoplos setosum (Willd) Kitam + Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steud + Polygonum nepalense Meisn in Huangzhong, Setaria viridis (Linn.) Beauv + Chenopodium album L.+ Polygonum aviculaye L. + Avena fatua L. + Convolvulus arvensis L. + Polygonum oonvolvulus L. + Cephalanoplos setosum ( Willd) Kitam in Minhe, Avena fatua L. + Galium maborasense Masamune + Sonchus brachyotus DC. + Cephalanoplos setosum (Willd) Kitam + Leymus secalinus (Georgi) Tzvel + Polygonum oonvolvulus L + Elsholtzia densa Benth + Polygonum aviculaye L.+ Euphorbia helioscopia Linn. in Ping’an, Lepyrodiclis holosteoides + Galium maborasense Masamune + Avena fatua L.+ Polygonum oonvolvulus L. + Sonchus brachyotus DC. + Elsholtzia densa Benth in Hualong, Avena fatua L.+ Galium maborasense Masamune + Chenopodium album L.+ Cephalanoplos setosum (Willd) Kitam + Equisetum arvense Linn. + Elsholtzia densa Benth in Datong, and Elsholtzia densa Benth + Lepyrodiclis holosteoides Laxm. + Chenopodium album L. + Bromus tectorum Linn. + Sonchus brachyotus DC. + Daucus carota in Gangcha. The species richness, diversity an d evenness degree of weed communities in conservation tillage fields of Huangzho ng and Datong were higher than those of other regions, but the dominance index o f these two regions was relatively low. The weed community structure of Huangzho ng was similar to that of Datong. The difference of weed community composition i n different conservation tillage systems might be caused by different geographic al environments, climatic conditions and weed control measures.
