Abstract
Some weeds are always associated with a particular crop and inhabit only the cropland, rarely expanding into other habitats. They have adapted to the habitats which man disturbs for the crop cultivation. Such weeds are the product of evolution under the specific selection pressures imposed by the crop cultivation over many years. Over time, they developed strategies adapted to the cultural practices or environments encountered throughout their life cycles that enable them to survive and even dominate there for generations. These cultural practices include field operations such as hand-weeding, but also crop harvest, threshing, and winnowing.
