  • Puncturevine Identification and Management Background Information
    Puncturevine Identification and Management Background Information History and Impacts Puncturevine (Tribulus terrestris) is also known as goathead. Puncturevine is native to southern Europe and Asia and is found throughout central Oregon. Its main weedy characteristic, as indicated by its name, are its spiky seedpods that can injure livestock, people, and pets when stepped on and can even puncture bicycle tires. Habitat Puncturevine is commonly found on disturbed sites, roadways, driveways, trails and parking areas, in overgrazed pastures, gardens and waste areas. Good soil moisture and warm temperatures are needed for germination, but after the plant is established it can tolerate dry soils due to its rapidly produced deep taproot. Seeds are primarily dormant in the first season, but may germinate the next spring. Seeds may remain viable in the soil for up to five years. Identification Plant: Puncturevine is a summer annual broadleaf that emerges as early as May and continue growth until frost. Plants generally grows low to the ground forming dense mats 2 to 5 feet in diameter. Leaves: The hairy leaves are opposite each other and divided into four to eight pairs of leaflets that are also opposite each other. Stems: Stems radiate out from a central point at the taproot. Flowers: The yellow flowers produced in the leaf axils have 5 petals and are ½ inch wide. The flowers appear as quickly as 3 weeks after the seedlings emerge and flowering continues throughout the growing season. Seeds: Following quick flowering, seeds are viable 1 to 2 weeks later however they usually stay dormant in the first year.

    Journal of Medicinal Plants Research Vol. 6(40), pp. 5360-5368, 17 October, 2012 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/JMPR DOI: 10.5897/JMPR12.539 ISSN 1996-0875 ©2012 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Antibacterial activity of some selected plants of family Zygophyllaceae and Euphorbiaceae Ghulam Dastagir 1*, Farrukh Hussain 1 and Abid Ali Khan 2 1Pharmacognosy Laboratory, Department of Botany, University of Peshawar, Pakistan. 2Centre for Biotechnology and Microbiology, University of Peshawar, Peshawar, Pakistan. Accepted 4 May, 2012 The antibacterial activity of the methanolic and n-hexane extracts of Fagonia cretica L. , Peganum harmala L. , Tribulus terrestris L. , Chrozophora tinctoria (L.) Raf and Ricinus communis L. , were investigated against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoni and Salmonella typhi. Phytochemical screening of the methanolic extract of F. cretica, P. harmala and C. tinctoria revealed the presence of saponins, phlobatannins, anthraquinones and alkaloids. Tannins and flavonoids were found in C. tinctoria and R. communis . Glycosides were found in F. cretica and P. harmala , while terpenoids and phenolics occurred in P. harmala . Group tests revealed that the methanolic and n-hexane extract of F. cretica, P. harmala, T. terrestris, C. tinctoria and R. communis had OH, carboxylic and phenolic groups. The methanolic and n-hexane extracts of F. cretica, P. harmala, T. terrestris, C. tinctoria and R. communis showed the absence of aldehyde and ketone group. The ability of the methanolic and n-hexane extracts of F. cretica , P. harmala, T. terrestris, C. tinctoria and R. communis to inhibit the growth of different bacteria has shown their broad spectrum antibacterial potential, which may be used in the management of microbial infections.

  • Reference Plant List
    APPENDIX J NATIVE & INVASIVE PLANT LIST The following tables capture the referenced plants, native and invasive species, found throughout this document. The Wildlife Action Plan Team elected to only use common names for plants to improve the readability, particular for the general reader. However, common names can create confusion for a variety of reasons. Common names can change from region-to-region; one common name can refer to more than one species; and common names have a way of changing over time. For example, there are two widespread species of greasewood in Nevada, and numerous species of sagebrush. In everyday conversation generic common names usually work well. But if you are considering management activities, landscape restoration or the habitat needs of a particular wildlife species, the need to differentiate between plant species and even subspecies suddenly takes on critical importance. This appendix provides the reader with a cross reference between the common plant names used in this document’s text, and the scientific names that link common names to the precise species to which writers referenced. With regards to invasive plants, all species listed under the Nevada Revised Statute 555 (NRS 555) as a “Noxious Weed” will be notated, within the larger table, as such. A noxious weed is a plant that has been designated by the state as a “species of plant which is, or is likely to be, detrimental or destructive and difficult to control or eradicate” (NRS 555.05). To assist the reader, we also included a separate table detailing the noxious weeds, category level (A, B, or C), and the typical habitats that these species invade.

  • Puncturevine (Tribulus Terrestris)
    Puncturevine O & T Guide W-13 Frank Sholedice, Research Associate & Mark Renz, Extension Weed Scientist Cooperative Extension Service z College of Agriculture and Home Economics z October 2006 Puncturevine, Tribulus terrestris, is a oblong in shape, about 0.2-0.6 in. long, prostrate summer annual with many green to dark green in color with smooth creeping or spreading stems, yellow edges, sometimes with long hairs or flowers with five petals, and woody seed bristles on the leaf or leaf edge. pods covered with spinney burs. The burs are very sharp and pose a threat to people, animals, pets, and some tires. The plant’s foliage is toxic to livestock when ingested; sheep are especially vulnerable because they can tolerate and will often eat the plant. Puncturevine is also known as goathead, bullhead, caltrop, Mexican sandbur, and tackweed. The stems originate from a taproot and can grow to about 3 ft. long with much branching. Stems are green to red or brown in color, often with long hairs, and grow horizontally along the ground. The flowers grow singly at leaf axils and are 0.2-0.6 in. in diameter, bright yellow, with five petals. Woody seed pods also develop singly at leaf axils and are 0.2-0.4 in. in diameter, green to brown in color, The plant’s leaves consist of 3-7 pairs of often hairy, with many sharp burs each opposite leaflets that grow along a 0.10-0.25 in. long. The plant grows from common midvein; each leaflet is oval or a semi-woody taproot and reproduces by seed only.

What is a Noxious Weed? Weeds are plants that interfere with management objectives for a given area of land at a given point in time. Noxious weeds are invasive non-native plants that are aggressive, competitive, highly destructive or difficult to control. “Noxious weed” is also a legal term: the Washington State Noxious Weed List is a regulatory list identifying plants that, by law, must be controlled. The Problem of Noxious Weeds: Noxious weeds are fierce competitors - able to invade and dominate sites very quickly. Many of these weeds are poisonous or can cause other types of physical damage to wildlife, livestock, and humans. Because most of these are non-native, they are able to outcompete the local native plants.

  • Unwelcome Guests: a Selective History of Weed Introductions to Arid and Semi-Arid Australia
    CSIRO PUBLISHING Australian Journal of Botany, 2020, 68,75–99 Turner Review No. 24 https://doi.org/10.1071/BT20030 Unwelcome guests: a selective history of weed introductions to arid and semi-arid Australia M. H. Friedel A,B AResearch Institute for the Environment and Livelihoods, Charles Darwin University, Grevillea Drive, Alice Springs, NT 0870, Australia. Email: [email protected] BFormerly CSIRO Land and Water, Alice Springs, NT 0870, Australia. Abstract. Following European settlement of Australia, numerous plant species were deliberately introduced for use in crops, pastures, gardens and horticulture, and others arrived by chance. Many subsequently escaped and became weedy. Of the 54 weed species of natural environments of arid and semi-arid Australia that are considered here, 27 were apparently accidentally introduced, 20 were intentionally introduced and 7 were probably introduced both accidentally and intentionally. Livestock including camels and their harness, and contaminated seed and hay were the most common vectors for accidental introduction. Amongst intentional introductions, rather more ornamental species appear to have invaded successfully than pasture species, but the former generally occupy niche habitats. Recent new introductions are few due to pre-border, border and post-border protections, but many current arid zone weeds continue to spread. Understanding the history of weed invasions can help to guide current and future management by clarifying pathways for introduction. Additional keywords: camel harness, contaminants
