Research Progress on Characteristics of Weeds Infestation in Citrus Orchards and Their Control in China
China's citrus-producing regions exhibit wide geographical distribution.Adequate hy-drothermal and nutrient conditions,and wide row with dense plant spacing cultivation tech-niques,has fostered a rich tapestry of weeds with rapid growth,resulting in complex weed communities within citrus orchards in China.The presence of weeds poses a multifaceted chal-lenge,including competition with fruit trees for water and fertilizer,acting as breeding grounds for pests and diseases,impeding the agricultural operation,and contributing to the deterioration of orchard environments.These ramifications,in turn,have profound adverse effects on citrus production,necessitating a strategic focus on weed control within citrus orchards.Due to the di-verse management practices,topographical variations,and differences in soil and climate condi-tions across China's citrus-producing areas,the weed community structure and dominant weed species exhibit notable distinctions.Drawing upon previous research findings and the investiga-tive analysis conducted by our research team,this paper systematically reviews and summarizes the weed community structure and dominant weed species in diverse citrus-producing regions across China.Furthermore,the paper meticulously examines the challenges associated with va-rious weed control measures,spanning physical,chemical,and ecological control methods.The prospect is to provide a theoretical foundation for the scientifically and environmentally sustain-able control of weeds in citrus orchards in China.The ultimate objective is to play a pivotal role in promoting the sustainable and healthy development of citrus industry in China.
