Abstract
A taxonomic study was carried out during 2000-2002 to study the morphological
and karyological characters of the wild eggplant weed, and its control strategy
in cotton fields. The morphological study revealed the presence of two types of
this weed. White-color flowers type and violet-color flowers type. The
karyological study showed similarity in the chromosomes of both types (2N),
which indicated that they belong to the same genetic type. Glyphosate was
sprayed after the last summer at the fruiting stage of the wild eggplant weed.
The herbicide was very effective in reducing the density (number) of wild
eggplant weeds by 58 to 76%, and reduced the dry biological mass by 64 to 81%.
