VASEY Colorado raised 31,276,986 bushels of small grain (wheat, oats. rye and barley) in 1917. It is estimated that if it had not been fo: the attacks of rust, the output for the State would have been an addi· tional 300,000 bushels. The rust caused a loss of about 200,000.- 000 bushels of wheat alone in the United States in 1916. Cereals are the most important staple crops. Rust seriously lower-s their yield. The loss from rust can be gl"eatly reduced by eradicating the common tall barberry (Berberis vulgaris). This shrub harbors and spreads the stem rust of cereals and is particularly destruc­ tive to wheat. It should be eradicated immediately. C. L. Marlatt, chairman of the Federal Horticultural Board, says: "During the past few years the Bureau of Plant Industry of the Department of Agriculture has been conducting a careful survey to determine the relationship of the common barberry to destructive epidemics of black or stem rust of wheat now prevalent throughout the spring-wheat area. This survey indicates clearly that the com­ mon barberry (Berberis vulgaris) is one of the important factors in the development of serious rust epidemics, if it is not imlcl.. d the main and practically the only factor. These conclusions are further supported by the experiences of the past few years in Denmark where the common barberry has been eradicated. No rust epidemics have occurred in Denmark since the eradication has been accomplished." RESOLUTION ON BARBERRY BY COLORADO COUNCIL OF DEFENSE "Whereas, it has been demonstrated by the most accurate scien­ tific work that the black stem rust of wheat and other cereals and grasses develops on both the green and purple varieties of common barberry (Berberis vulgaris) bushes in the spring, producing count­ less numbers of minute spores which may be carried long distances 4 COLOItADO AGRICULTURAL CoLUG£ by the wind to wheat, other cereals and grasses, and wherea .~ the chief wheat-producing states, under the encouragement of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, are engaged in the eradication of common barberry in order to increase food production; and whereas. at has been shown in this and certain European countries that black rust has disappeared gradually and contemporaneously with the bar­ berry bush; and, whereas we have in the Japanese barberry (Berberu thunbergii) a variety which is immune to rust and may be pldnted with safety: Therefore, be it RESOLVED, That we, the State Council of Defense, request that there be no further planting of any barberry (Berberis spp.) bushes except the species and variety known as Japanese barberry (Berberis thunbergii), and that all barberry bushes except the im­ mune variety above mentioned be destroyed on all premises within the bounds of the State of Colorado. Further, we declare the bar­ berry varieties which support the black stem rust, a pest, and we sup­ port the State Entomologist in his efforts to criforce the provisions 01 the Colorado Pest Inspection Act."

Whenever the State Entomologist, his deputy, or county inspector, has reason to believe', or has been credibly informed, that within the State there exist lands infested by pests which are liable to spread to the injury of others, it shall be his duty to make investigation of the SUB­ pected premises, and if they are found so infested, shall notify the owner or persons in charge or control of such premises, in writing, of the nature, ex­ tent and location of the infection and demand that within a specified time certain specified work shall be done on the infested premises for the ex­ termination of the pests, and if the occupant of the infested property re­ fuses or fails to do effective work on the premises in accordance with the in­ structions of the officer in charge, such officer shall take possession of the in­ fested premises, and do the work necessary for the extermination of said pests, as provided in this Act. The reasonable and necessary expeUBea for doing such work shall be paid by the county without unnecessary delay, upon filing with the county commissioners of the certificate of the State Entomologist showing the necessity for such work, the reasonable cost and expenses thereof, and giving a de'scription of the land or property upon which the work was done.

Its native range is Asia's middle and western mountains, and it is widely introduced throughout Europe [44,77]. Common barberry was brought to North America in the 1600s by early New England settlers (Josselyn 1672 cited in [55]),[44], and soon after its introduction, common barrberry escaped from cultivation. Soon after its introduction and escape, common barberry was linked with failing wheat crops [27]. Programs to eliminate and restrict planting of common barberry in North America began in the 18th century, but large-scale cooperative eradication did not occur until the early 1900s.

  • Changes in Anthocyanin and Fruit Quality Attributes of Barberry (Berberis Vulgaris L.) Grown in Diff Erent Altitude During Growth and Maturation
    The Journal of Agricultural Sciences - Sri Lanka Vol. 13, No. 3, September 2018. Pp 227-236 http://dx.doi.org/10.4038/jas.v13i3.8396 Open Access Article Changes in Anthocyanin and Fruit Quality Attributes of Barberry (Berberis vulgaris L.) Grown in Diff erent Altitude During Growth and Maturation F. Moradinezhad1, M. Khayyat1* and Z. Maraki1 Received: 18th July 2017 / Accepted: 5th December 2018 ABSTRACT Purpose: Seedless barberry is one of the economical sources of anthocyanin pigment. However, short harvesting period creates many diffi culties in harvesting and drying processes, leading to low quality. Therefore, it was very important to study diff erent barberry growing areas and also evaluating fruit quality in these regions, to propose sooner harvesting in some regions. Research Method: The study was conducted in two regions (Marack and Amirabad) of Birjand suburbs, South Khorasan, Iran, during two growing seasons (2014-2015), to investigate the major physicochemical changes of barberry fruit during diff erent growth and development stages (89, 121, 152, 183 and 214 days after full bloom (DAFB)). Findings: The results showed that fruit fresh weight and volume, pH, total soluble solids (TSS), maturity index and anthocyanin signifi cantly increased, as harvest season progressed. The region conditions also infl uenced the above-mentioned parameters. Data indicated that lower night temperatures in the Marack led to better fruit indices compared with Amirabad, which may be resulted from a higher altitude as compared to Amirabad. The better fruit maturity index and anthocyanin content obtained in Marack at the fourth harvest date (183 DAFB), compared with Amirabad, which creates a sooner harvest potential.

About 90% of cases are reported from countries such as Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. The purpose of the present study was to fabricate transdermal patches of Nigella sativa (NS), characterize and to check its in vitro in vivo anti-Lieshmanial activity. Hydroalcohlic extract was analyzed for preliminary phytochemicals. Five formulations of transdermal patches (NS1, NS2, NS3, NS4 and NS5) were prepared by solvent evaporation method. The optimized formulation NS5 was characterized for FTIR, smoothness, brittleness, clarity, thickness, folding endurance, uniformity of weight, percent moisture content, in-vitro drug release, release kinetics, ex vivo drug permeation and in- vitro anti-Lieshmanial activity. In vivo anti-Lieshmanial activity was assessed in 30 patients (n = 30) suffering from CL. The FTIR studies showed no incompatibility among the active extract and polymers.

  • Common Barberry, Berberis Vulgaris Japanese Barberry, Berberis Thunbergii
    Common barberry, Berberis vulgaris Japanese barberry, Berberis thunbergii Summary of Treatment Methods: Habitat: Japanese and Common barberry can aggressively invade in diverse habitats, from wetlands to fields and pastures to upland forests, in both moist and dry soils. As birds carry barberry seeds, it is common to find plants concentrated along tree-lined roadsides and field edges where birds roost. They thrive in sunlight and are tolerant of shade, however common barberry seems to be less shade tolerant than Japanese barberry and is less likely to be found in an interior, closed-canopy forest. Plants growing in dense shade may flower and fruit less heavily than those in more open sites. Reproductive Strategy: Reproduction is mainly by seed but it can root sprout and layer. Barberry produces a large number of seeds with high germination rates, estimated at up to 90%. Fruits mature from July to October and persist well into the winter. Fruit production varies with light level, but even under very low light levels (4% full sun) some seeds are produced. Dispersal: Barberry has a very steep seed dispersal curve —most seedlings are found under or adjacent to adults, but a small number may be found tens of meters from the nearest adult. Seeds are disseminated by birds, grouse, turkey and small mammals. Species Phenology and Treatment Options: Full leaf out Phenology Flowering Seed ripening Month JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JUL AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC Hand pulling and digging Manual Cutting and mowing Direct flame Follow-up direct flame Foliar herbicide
