Weeds as a microbiological soil indicator
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the tropical zone, weed populations are generally high in crops, and yield losses can be irreversible if a set of measures for their timely management is not established, since they considerably increase the diversity of agricultural systems. The uptake of nutrients from the soil is fundamentally given by root growth and its interaction with the biotic and abiotic components of the soil, for which issues such as microbial biodiversity and its effect on soil quality are fundamental; that is why the importance of microorganisms in the rhizosphere of plants that facilitate the promotion of plant growth and its biotechnological use, as an alternative to promote the sustainability and quality of soils. The objective of this work was to analyze issues related to weeds, as microbiological indicators of the soil, as well as their importance in agroecosystems and their impact on agriculture.
