  • Control of Lepidium Latifolium and Restoration of Native Grasses
    AN ABSTRACf OF THE THESIS OF Mar2aret S. Laws for the degree of Master of Science in Ran2eland Resources presented on November 23. 1999. Title: Control of Leoidium latifolium and Restoration of Native Grasses. ( Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: _ Lepidium latifolium L. (perennial pepperweed, LEPLA) is an exotic invader throughout western North America. At Malheur National Wildlife Refuge (MNWR) in southeast Oregon, it has invaded about 10% of meadow habitats that are important for wildlife. This study's objective was to determine the most effective and least environmentally harmful treatment to control this weed and restore native vegetation using integrated pest management techniques. During summer 1995, nine 0.24-ha plots in three meadows infested with L latifolium at MNWR were randomly assigned to a treatment with metsulfuron methyl herbicide, chlorsulfuron herbicide, disking, burning, herbicide (metsulfuron methyl or chlorsulfuron) then disking, herbicide (metsulfuron methyl or chlorsulfuron) then burning, or untreated. Changes in L latifolium ramet densities and basal cover of vegetation, litter, and bare soil were evaluated in 1996 and 1997. Sheep grazing was evaluated as a treatment for reduction in flower production along roadsides and levees during summer 1997. Revegetation treatments of seeding, transplanting or natural (untreated) revegetation were attempted at plots treated with chlorsulfuron, disking, chlorsulfuron then disking, and at untreated plots from October 1996 through September 1997. Chlorsulfuron was the most effective control treatment with greater than 97% reduction in L latifolium ramet densities two years after treatment Metsulfuron methyl was an effective control (greater than 93% reduction) for one year. Disking was ineffective. Burning was ineffective at the one site where sufficient fine fuels existed to carry fire.

  • Weed Notes: Lepidium Latifolium Tunyalee Morisawa the Nature
    Weed Notes: Lepidium latifolium TunyaLee Morisawa The Nature Conservancy Wildland Weeds Management and Research http://tncweeds.ucdavis.edu 18 June 1999 Biology: Lepidium latifolium (Family: Brassicaceae) is an extremely invasive weed commonly called perennial pepperweed, perennial peppercress, perennial peppergrass, broad-leaved peppergrass, peppergrass, slender perennial peppercress, tall whitetop or dittander. A native from North Africa to Norway and east to the Himalayan region of southern Asia, this weed has invaded every state in the U.S. except for Arizona. In the western U.S., L. latifolium was first discovered in Montana in 1935 and in California in 1936. It is believed that L. latifolium was introduced to the west as a contaminant in sugarbeet seed. L. latifolium readily invades disturbed areas and bare soils. The weed is spread by seed and rhizomes. In pastures, infestation is probably from contaminated hay or from movement of seeds in irrigation water from riparian habitats. Germination rates increase when the seeds are near the soil surface and are exposed to fluctuating temperatures. The seeds do not have a hard seed coat and so longevity in the soil may be short (several years). Therefore, reinfestation from a seed bank in the soil after population control may be low. However, new growth from rhizomes or succulent woody crowns does occur during the late winter. By mid-May the stems can reach 0.5 m in height. L. latifolium is similar to hoary cress, Cardaria draba (L.) Desv. However, L. latifolium grows vigorously both above and below ground. Also, the leaves are hairless and the edges are not serrated.

Received 16 March, 2015; Accepted 10 April, 2015 Lepidium sativum L. (family Brassicaceae), is underutilized medicinal plant with worldwide distribution. In Ethiopia, L. sativum occurs in all regions and agro-ecologies at different altitudinal ranges. The study was conducted to assess the genetic diversity of L. sativum populations from Ethiopia using molecular marker and agronomic traits. Molecular data generated from inter simple sequence repeat bands recorded was used for computing gene diversity, percent polymorphism, Shannon diversity index and analysis of molecular variance. Moreover, the inter simple sequence repeat data was used to construct unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean, neighbor joining trees and principal co-ordinate plot using Jaccard’s coefficient. Tigray and Amhara L. sativum populations showed higher gene diversity (0.24) and Shannon information index (0.35). Both unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean and principal co-ordinate analysis showed very weak grouping among individuals collected from the same regions. Generally, Tigray and Amhara regions showed moderate to high diversity in inter simple sequence repeat analysis. Different geographical regions of Ethiopia, showed different levels of variation; thus, conservation priority should be given to those regions that have genetic diversity.
