  • (Anthemis Cotula L.): an ALIEN INVASIVE SPECIES in KASHMIR HIMALAYA
    Proceedings of the 21st Asian Pacific Weed Science Society Conference (Editors: B. Marambe, U.R. Sangakkara, W.A.J.M. De Costa, and A.S.K. Abeysekara), 2-6 October 2007, Colombo, Sri Lanka. EFFECT OF SEEDLING EMERGENCE TIME ON THE PERFORMANCE OF MAYWEED (Anthemis cotula L.): AN ALIEN INVASIVE SPECIES IN KASHMIR HIMALAYA I. Rashid, Z. Reshi and B.A. Wafai Department of Botany, University of Kashmir, Srinagar, J&K, India [email protected] Abstract: Biological invasions, caused by non-native invasive species are a major factor contributing to ecosystem perturbations and hence are being actively pursued worldwide. Mayweed (Anthemis cotula L.), a native of southern Europe-West Siberia is an aggressive invasive species in Kashmir Himalaya, India. Among the myriad of attributes, seedling emergence time is critical to its successful colonization of habitats with varying levels of soil disturbance. Field studies revealed that the species recruits individuals over an extended period of time from September to May. This recruitment period is interspersed by harsh snowy winter (December-February) and hence the established plants of the species are constituted of pre-winter and post-winter populations, with former contributing to the fitness component of its life history and latter to the survival component. Except for number of achenes per capitulum and achene weight, all other investigated parameters such as stem height, number of primary branches per plant and number of capitula per plant were significantly higher in individuals belonging to pre-winter population in than the individuals constituting the post-winter plants. Fecundity of pre-winter individuals was further enhanced if decapitated by a specific herbivore that results in over-compensatory growth.

  • The First Missouri Occurrences of Cerastium Dubium (Anomalous Mouse-Eared Chickweed)
    Missouriensis, 34: 20-23. 2017. *pdf effectively published online 30 September 2017 via https://monativeplants.org/missouriensis The first Missouri occurrences of Cerastium dubium (anomalous mouse-eared chickweed) STEVE R. TURNER1 & GERRIT DAVIDSE2 ABSTRACT. – Cerastium dubium is reported new to the Missouri flora from two counties in eastern Missouri. A detailed description is provided based on local populations. Cerastium dubium (Bastard) Guépin (= Cerastium anomalum Waldst. & Kit. ex Willd.; Stellaria dubia Bastard; Dichodon viscidum (M. Bieb.) Holub – see Tropicos.org) is a Eurasian member of the Caryophyllaceae. Commonly called anomalous mouse-eared chickweed, three- styled chickweed, or doubtful chickweed, its first reported appearance in North America was in Washington state in 1966 (Hitchcock and Cronquist 1973). Since then, the plant has been discovered in Illinois (Shildneck and Jones 1986), and is now known from scattered populations in several states bordering Missouri: Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Kansas. Yatskievych (2006) discusses C. dubium and mentions that although the species had not been reported in Missouri, its arrival is anticipated. According to Yatskievych, the plant generally resembles C. nutans or C. brachypodum, but with the unique characters of three styles and a straight capsule with 6 apical teeth at dehiscence. In March of 2012, while rototilling a garden plot at his residence near Labadie, in Franklin County, Missouri, the first author discovered a small population of plants unfamiliar to him, growing with Lamium amplexicaule and Stellaria media. The flowers of this plant were somewhat showier than the common Stellaria, with wider and less deeply cleft petals. The centers of the flowers were bright yellow due to anthers and profusely shed pollen.

Hence the need to design a database of the Italian alimurgic flora: AlimurgITA. Only strictly alimurgic taxa were chosen, excluding casual alien and cultivated ones. The collected data come from an archive of 358 texts (books and scientific articles) from 1918 to date, chosen with appropriate criteria. For each taxon, the part of the plant used, the method of use, the chorotype, the biological form and the regional distribution in Italy were considered. The 1103 taxa of edible flora already entered in the database equal 13.09% of Italian flora. The most widespread family is that of the Asteraceae (20.22%); the most widely used taxa are Cichorium intybus and Borago officinalis. The not homogeneous regional distribution of WEPs (maximum in the south and minimum in the north) has been interpreted. Texts published reached its peak during the 2001–2010 decade. A database for Italian WEPs is important to have a synthesis and to represent the richness and Citation: Paura, B.; Di Marzio, P.; complexity of this knowledge, also in light of its potential for cultural enhancement, as well as its Salerno, G.; Brugiapaglia, E.; Bufano, applications for the agri-food system.

  • Synergistic Effect of Herbivory and Mycorrhizal Interactions on Plant Invasiveness
    African Journal of Microbiology Research Vol. 6(19), pp. 4107-4112, 23 May, 2012 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJMR DOI: 10.5897/AJMR11.1278 ISSN 1996-0808 ©2012 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Synergistic effect of herbivory and mycorrhizal interactions on plant invasiveness Manzoor A. Shah1*, Z. A. Reshi and I. Rashid2 1Department of Botany, University of Kashmir, Srinagar-190006, Jammu and Kashmir, India. 2Government Degree College (Boys), Baramulla, Kashmir, India. Accepted 9 December, 2011 Amongst many novel interactions that alien plants forge with their new associates in the introduced range, the role of Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) mutualism and herbivory has been hitherto studied separately. Since these associations operate concurrently in nature to influence plant performance, we attempted to investigate their interactive effect on invasiveness of Mayweed Chamomile (Anthemis cotula L.), a highly invasive species in the Kashmir Himalaya, India. Survey of some field populations of A. cotula in native (European) and introduced (Kashmir Himalayan) regions revealed high incidence of phytophagous parasites on the species in native range, in contrast to almost enemy-free populations in the introduced range. However, occasional association of an aphid herbivore with some individuals of A. cotula in the introduced range was found to have positive influence on traits contributing to invasiveness of the species. We subsequently established a pot experiment in which A. cotula was grown with and without mycorrhizas and herbivores, both in isolation and combination. Results revealed that mycorrhizal inoculation and herbivory, both in isolation and in combination, influenced significantly growth and fitness, hence invasiveness, of A. cotula.
