Box 524, Auckland Park 2006, Johannesburg, South Africa Received 4 November 2011; received in revised form 18 November 2011; accepted 21 November 2011 Abstract Asphodelus fistulosus or onionweed is recorded in South Africa for the first time and is the first record of an invasive member of the Asphodelaceae in the country. Only two populations of this plant have been observed, both along disturbed roadsides on the West Coast of South Africa. The extent and invasive potential of this infestation in the country is still limited but the species is known to be an aggressive invader in other parts of the world. © 2011 SAAB.

  • California Department of Food and Agriculture
    DEPARTMENT OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE PROPOSED CHANGES IN THE REGULATIONS Title 3, California Code of Regulations Section 4500 Noxious Weed Species INITIAL STATEMENT OF REASONS/ POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW Description of Public Problem, Administration Requirement, or Other Condition or Circumstance the Regulation is Intended to Address This regulation is intended to address the obligation of the Department of Food and Agriculture (Department) to protect the agricultural industry from the movement and spread of injurious noxious weeds into and within California. Specific Purpose and Factual Basis The specific purpose of section 4500 is to provide authority to the state to regulate the movement of the listed noxious weeds species into or within California. The factual basis for the determination by the Department that the amendment of this regulation is necessary is as follows: Invasive weeds have significant effects on the agricultural industry and environment. They can intensify drought impacts, increase fire hazard, decrease rangeland productivity, reduce water resources, raise nursery business costs, and diminish wildland diversity. Alien weeds spread to and invade approximately 700,000 hectares per year of U.S. wildlife habitat. One such pest weed, introduced in the early 19th century as an ornamental plant, is the European purple loosestrife. Spreading at a rate of 115,000 hectares per year, the weed population changes the basic structure of most of the invaded wetlands. Competitive stands of purple loosestrife have reduced the biomass of 44 native plant species and endangered wildlife such as the bog turtle that depends on these native plants. Loosestrife now occurs in 48 states and costs $45 million per year in control expenses and forage losses.

Asphodelus L. is a widespread genus with about 20 species in the Asphodelaceae family. Most of its species are distributed in Mediterranean regions and among them Asphodelus fistulosus as a species with a broad ecological range is recorded from Gilan and Mazandaran provinces in North of Iran for the first time. The populations of this species are observed on the roadside, abandoned, disturbed farms and gardens.

AGENCY CONTACT Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Science and Technology Plant Protection and Quarantine Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service United States Department of Agriculture 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Weed Risk Assessment for Asphodelus fistulosus (onionweed) Executive Summary The result of the weed risk assessment for Asphodelus fistulosus is High Risk of becoming weedy or invasive in the United States. This taxon is an annual or perennial herb that can form dense populations in arid and disturbed environments and has been most invasive in pastures and rangelands in Australia. It has become naturalized in the southwestern United States and has been reported in twelve counties in four states (California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas). Asphodelus fistulosus is regulated as a Federal Noxious Weed in the United States, although we found no evidence that Federal or state official control efforts are currently being undertaken. This taxon is a prolific seed- producer with seeds that can remain viable in the seed bank for several years and are easily transported in trade, on vehicles, and by animals. Asphodelus fistulosus is unpalatable to livestock and can reduce the carrying capacity of rangelands and pastures. Twenty-four percent of the area of the United States is climatically suitable for A.

ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Article History: The piece of work has been designed to study the present-day vegetation and document the flora of wild plants of the Submission date: 08/03/2020 Wadi Al-Hamar region north Middle Libya. A survey of plant species of the Wadi was conducted between October Accepted date: 23/06/2020 2017 to May 2018, with two trips per month at least. The plant specimens were collected in flowering or in fruiting stage. Data inventory has been documented in the form of family, Botanical name, vernacular name, life form, and habit. The study revealed the presence of 112 species within 93 genera of vascular plants belonging to 31 families, of Keywords: which 13 species are belonging to monocotyledons and 99 belonging to dicotyledons. The family Asteraceae was the Floristic, Raunkiaer life forms, Wadi richest (21 species) followed by Fabaceae (19 species), then Poaceae and Brassicaceae (8 and 7 species respectively).

  • Asphodelus Fistulous L., a Newly Discovered Plant Invader in South Africa: Assessing the Risk of Invasion and Potential for Eradication
    Bothalia - African Biodiversity & Conservation ISSN: (Online) 2311-9284, (Print) 0006-8241 Page 1 of 12 Original Research Asphodelus fistulous L., a newly discovered plant invader in South Africa: Assessing the risk of invasion and potential for eradication Authors: Background: Naturalised populations of Asphodelus fistulosus (onion weed) were recorded in 1 Nolwethu Jubase South Africa for the first time during the early 1990s. Initial records lodged in 2012 indicated Jorge L. Renteria1,2 David Maphisa1,3 the presence of two populations. Five additional populations were found between 2012 and Ernita van Wyk1,4 2016, as a result of surveys and the distribution of awareness materials. All populations in South Africa occurred along roadsides, but in other parts of the world the species has Affiliations: demonstrated the ability to spread into adjacent native vegetation and crop fields. 1South African National Biodiversity Institute, Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the risk of invasion and potential for eradication. Cape Town, South Africa Method: A risk assessment tool was used to establish invasion risk. Of the seven known 2Department of populations, five test populations were selected to gather data on the feasibility for eradication. Environmental Science Randomised fixed plots were used to monitor the response of A. fistulosus populations to and Policy, University of California, Davis, mechanical and chemical plant control methods and to track spread over time. The germinability United States of seeds was also tested. 3Department of Statistical Results: The Standard Australian Risk Assessment method for invasive alien plants gave a Sciences, University of relatively high score for the threat posed by this species.
