Abstract:
Research on weeds has been reported extensively and in most cases tradit
ional techniques have been used. But during the last two decades, emphasis has been
given on the use of biotechnology in weed research. As aresult, some advances have
been made (Sharner et al, 1985: Mujeeb-Kazi & sitch, 1989; persely, 1990).
Potential exist for further advances in weed research with modern biotechnologies.
The present paper gives an over view on biotechnological approach in weed
research.
