In order to study the competition effects of redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus) and millet (Panicum miliaceum) on maize performance under different rates of N fertilizer, a field experiment was conducted in 2009 in the research fields of Tarbiat Modares University in Tehran as a randomized complete block design with factorial arrangement of treatments and three replications. Accordingly, three factors included nitrogen fertilizer (75% optimum or 138 kg N ha-1, optimum or 184 kg N ha-1 and 125% optimum or 230 kg N ha-1), weed species (redroot pigweed and millet) and weed densities (5 and 25 plants m-1 for redroot pigweed and 7.5 and 37.5 plants m-1 for millet) consisted. Results showed that the highest grain yield (921.89 g m-2) was achieved in treatment 230 kg N ha-1 while the lowest yields (466.72 g m-2) belonged to treatment millet fertilized with 138 kg N ha-1. High densities of millet and redroot pigweed resulted in significant reductions in number of grains per row and the ear length. Differences in N application rates cause significant variations in biological yield and some of the yield components of maize. Overall, results indicated that in fields where a nitrophile species is the dominant, increasing N application rate beyond the optimum not only does not increase maize grain yield but also reduces its yield and causes pollution of environment.
