Plant Sci. 91: 553Á569. Nipplewort, Lapsana communis, is an annual weed of the Asteraceae native to Europe and western Asia, first detected in northeastern and Pacific northwestern regions of North America in the 19th century. It appears to have been introduced as a contaminant of imported garden material and seeds, but may also have been deliberately introduced as a medicinal herb. After a century of remaining close to its original points of introduction in gardens and ruderal habitats, it spread to neighbouring areas, and now occurs across southern Canada and in many areas of the United States. Possible reasons for this range expansion include forest clearance and changing crop management practices as was observed in Europe, where this plant has become an important weed in grain, forage and vegetable crops. In Ontario, L. communis has recently emerged as a weed in wheat (Triticum aestivum), corn (Zea mays) and soybean (Glycine max) fields.

  • Garlic Mustard Plant Alliaria Petiolata Alert
    Invasive Garlic Mustard Plant Alliaria petiolata Alert One of the biggest threats to natural ecosystems in Saanich is the spread of invasive non-native plants. The District of Saanich appreciates the cooperation of all residents in removing Garlic Mustard from private property. For assistance, see contacts on reverse. Considered one of the most invasive plants in Canada. Why is Garlic Mustard a problem? • Garlic Mustard is a serious threat to natural habitats and biodiversity. • Dominates understorey vegetation, monopolizing light, moisture and soil nutrients. • Produces phytotoxins (chemicals) inhibiting growth of other plants and trees. • Has been shown to disrupt the lifecycles of butterflies and salamanders in other areas of North America. • A prolific seed producer with seeds remaining viable for 5-10 years in soil; also self-pollinating (single seed produces new invasion). What does it look like? • First year: lower growing carpets of heart-shaped leaves with scalloped margins, remaining green over winter. • Second year: grow to over 1m tall; mature leaves triangular with scalloped margins becoming smaller towards top of plant. • Flowers: clusters of small white 4-petaled flowers at top of stem, usually one flowering stalk per plant. • Garlic odour when crushed. • Look for: White flowers (April to September), garlic odour, purple base of the stems and roots. Could be confused with: Distribution: • Wild Violet (Viola spp) • Native to Europe and Asia. • Fringecup (Tellima grandiflora) • Eastern Canada: a species of • Nipplewort (Lapsana communis) major concern, has devastated forest ecosystems. • Money Plant (Lunaria annua) • A newer invader to BC: the • Sweet Cicely (Osmorhiza berteroi) regional goal is to eradicate • Avens (Geum spp) due to current distribution and high priority.

SUMMARY A 45-day plant collection expedition to the USSR by D. R. Dewey, A. P. Plummer, and Laurie Law netted about 1,100 seed collections of range-forage grasses, legumes, forbs, and shrubs. The Soviets provided land transportation and an escort of several scientists and administrators throughout the trip. The collectors were usually housed in hotels and made daily trips to collect native vegetation in surrounding areas usually within a 100-km radius. Almost 3 weeks (July 20 - August 6) were spent in the Stavropol Kray in the northern foothills of the Caucasus Mountains.

  • Garlic Mustard (Alliaria Petiolata)
    KING COUNTY NOXIOUS WEED ALERT Garlic Mustard Class A Noxious Weed: Eradication Required Alliaria petiolata Mustard Family Identification Tips • Typically 2 to 3 feet tall, can grow up to 6 feet • Usually produces one flowering stalk with small, four-petal white flowers clustered at the top of leafy stems • In spring the roots and new leaves smell like garlic • The root usually has a distinct ‘S’ or ‘L’ shape just below the base of the stem Flowers are small and white with four • Lower leaves have scalloped edges and are kidney-shaped petals. • Upper leaves are more triangular with pointier teeth on leaf edges • Leaves are smooth, not fuzzy • Seed pods are long and narrow Biology Non-native biennial or winter annual herb. Seedlings develop into basal rosettes by midsummer; they overwinter to bolt the following spring. Flowers in early April to May. Spreads by seed; can self-pollinate or cross- pollinate. Stands can produce over 60,000 seeds per square yard. Seeds viable in the soil for at least 10 years. Leaves are shaped like a kidney or heart with wavy, toothed edges. Impacts Produces chemicals that inhibit the growth of other plants, fungi and butterfly larvae. Displaces native plants due its rapid spread, dense growth pattern, and long seed viability. Distribution Originally from Europe. Found in Seattle, Bellevue, on the Cedar River, and a few other areas around King County. Seeds fall close to the parent plant where they are moved by people, animals and vehicles. Known to quickly spread from paths and trails to wooded areas. Thought to have been spread through wood chip piles, on boots, or carried on people, pets or equipment moving between parks.

Use of X-ray to Identify Contaminants in Pelleted Seed Lots for Biosecurity A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Agricultural Science) at Massey University, Manawatū New Zealand Yufan Wang April 2019 Abstract Thousands of tonnes of seed, of which around 10% is pelleted, comes into New Zealand through international trade every year. However, this trade also brings potential risks to New Zealand biosecurity. Pelleted seeds can contain contaminants, including seeds other than the crop species in the seed lot and inert matter; both may cause negative effects on crop growth or bring pests and diseases. A reliable method is necessary to inspect seed lots for the contaminants. The conventional way to inspect for contaminants in pelleted seeds is to separate the seeds from pellets and inspect visually. However, this is a time consuming and potentially health damaging procedure. A faster and safer non-invasive inspection method is needed urgently. X-ray imaging systems have the potential to non-invasively identify contaminants in seed lots. 2-D X-ray was firstly applied in this research to determine if the system could separate non-target seeds such as weed seed from naked crop “target” seeds, since if 2-D X-ray cannot separate non-target seeds from naked target seeds, there is little chance to separate seeds that are pelleted.

Associate editor: Hideki Innan Abstract Biodiversity results from multiple evolutionary mechanisms, including genetic variation and natural selection. Whole- genome duplications (WGDs), or polyploidizations, provide opportunities for large-scale genetic modifications. Many evolutionarily successful lineages, including angiosperms and vertebrates, are ancient polyploids, suggesting that WGDs are a driving force in evolution. However, this hypothesis is challenged by the observed lower speciation and higher extinction rates of recently formed polyploids than diploids. Asteraceae includes about 10% of angiosperm species, is thus undoubtedly one of the most successful lineages and paleopolyploidization was suggested early in this family using a small number of datasets. Here, we used genes from 64 new transcriptome datasets and others to reconstruct a robust Asteraceae phylogeny, covering 73 species from 18 tribes in six subfamilies. We estimated their divergence times and further identified multiple potential ancient WGDs within several tribes and shared by the Heliantheae alliance, core Asteraceae (Asteroideae–Mutisioideae), and also with the sister family Calyceraceae.

  • Overview of the Washington State Noxious Weed Law
    Overview of the Washington State Noxious Weed Law Sasha Shaw Education Specialist King County Noxious Weed Control Program www.kingcounty.gov/weeds 206‐477‐9333 Wait, there’s a noxious weed law in Washington? Does this have anything to do with the new Washington weed law? Washington has had a noxious weed law since 1881 in order to reduce the impact of introduced weeds (and no, this has nothing to do with the other weed law) Weeds don’t obey property lines so Washington’s noxious weed law shares the job among all landowners – public and private. All landowners are responsible for controlling noxious weeds on their property. State noxious weed law is designed to: • Contain and eradicate new weeds when first detected in the state • Prevent further spread of already established weeds to un‐infested areas • Allow flexibility of weed control at the county level for widespread weeds that are of local concern http://media.komonews.com/images/130810_wildfire_405.jpg http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2012/08/15/business/fire/fire‐blog480.jpg Early detection and rapid Containment and control to response for new outbreaks prevent further spread Where would I find the actual law? • RCW 17.10, (Revised Code of Washington) is the state’s basic weed law. • The Washington Administrative Code (WAC) contains the rules and regulations needed to carry out the state law. – WAC Chapter 16‐750 includes the state Noxious Weed List, definitions and descriptions of region boundaries for Class B weeds, and the schedule of monetary penalties. – WAC Chapter 16‐752 describes the quarantine list maintained by the state Department of Agriculture.

  • Invasive Asteraceae Copy.Indd
    Family: Asteraceae Common Tansy Ecological Impact Common tansy has been reported as unpalatable and somewhat poisonous to humans and livestock. It is also an alternate host for plant viruses (Royer and Dickinson 1999). It can grow along irrigation ditches and streams and restrict water flow (CWMA 2004). Biology and Invasive Potential Common tansy reproduces vigorously by both seed and rootstalks. Each plant is capable of producing over 50,000 seeds (Whitson et al. 2000, Royer and Dickinson 1999) and spreading quite aggressively by vegetative means (Plants for a Future 2002). It is generally restricted to USDA Forest Service photo by Michael Shephard Service photo by Michael USDA Forest Family: Asteraceae Common Tansy disturbed sites, although it has been observed growing in undisturbed beach meadows in Haines, Alaska (M. Shephard, pers. comm. 2004). Plants lack a well developed pappus and therefore are unlikely to be wind dispersed. Common tansy has been used and distributed as an ornamen- tal and medicinal remedy, and it has Old XID Services photo by Richard escaped and become widely established. It is also a poten- tial seed contaminant (CWMA 2004, GRIN 2004). It is known to germinate in vegetated areas (SWEPIC 2004) and is adapted to all soil textures. It requires well-drained moist soil but can tolerate acidic, neutral, and basic soils. It is not shade-tolerant (Plants for a Future 2002). Common tansy is listed as a noxious weed in Colorado, Minnesota, Montana, Washington, Wyoming, Alberta, British Colum- bia, and Manitoba. Distribution and Abundance Common tansy is a native of Europe and Western Asia and has become established in almost all of the United States and Canadian provinces.
