Red rice, which grows taller and produces more tillers than domestic rice and shatters most of its seeds early, is a major weed in many rice-growing areas of the world. Field experiments were conducted at Stuttgart, AR in 1997 and 1998 to evaluate the growth response of the Kaybonnet (KBNT) rice cultivar to various population densities of three red rice ecotypes. The ecotypes tested were Louisiana3 (LA3), Stuttgart strawhull (Stgstraw), and Katy red rice (KatyRR). Compared with KBNT alone, LA3, the tallest of the three red rice ecotypes, reduced tiller density of KBNT 51%%, aboveground biomass at 91 d after emergence (DAE) 35%%, and yield 80%%. Stgstraw, a medium-height red rice, reduced KBNT tiller density 49%%, aboveground biomass 26%%, and yield 61%%. KatyRR, the shortest red rice, reduced KBNT tiller density 30%%, aboveground biomass 16%%, and yield 21%%. Tiller density of rice was reduced by 20 to 48%% when red rice density increased from 25 to 51 plants m⁻⁻². Rice biomass at 91 DAE was reduced by 9 and 44%% when red rice densities were 16 and 51 plants m⁻⁻². Rice yield was reduced by 60 and 70%% at red rice densities of 25 and 51 plants m⁻⁻², respectively. These results demonstrate that low populations of red rice can greatly reduce rice growth and yield and that short-statured red rice types may affect rice growth less than taller ecotypes.Nomenclature: Red rice, Oryza sativa L.
