A biological control program was implemented during the late 1970s in an attempt to manage infestations of rush skeletonweed and to limit its spread into new areas. Three agents, Cystiphora schmidti (Rübsaamen) (a gall midge), Aceria chondrillae (Canestrini) (a gall mite), and Puccinia chondrillina Bubak & Sydenham (a rust fungus) have been established in Idaho and other areas of the western United States. However these agents have provided only limited control of the weed. One additional agent, the root-feeding moth Bradyrrhoa gilveolella (Treitschke) (Lepidoptera, Pyralidae), was approved by the USDA-APHIS for release in the United States in 2002. Initial releases were made in southern Idaho in November 2002 and during the summers of 2003 through 2009 (excluding 2005). Releases were made using infested plants (the 2002 initial release) then utilizing first instar larvae and adults from greenhouse colonies. In total we released the moth at eight sites utilizing nine infested plants (est. -

EMBRYOLOGICAL PROCESSES DURING the SEED FORMATION in TWO TRIPLOID SPECIES of Taraxacum
ISSN 1644-0625 ISSN 2300-8504 (online) www.agricultura.acta.utp.edu.pl Acta Sci. Pol. Agricultura, 14(2) 2015, 29-36 EMBRYOLOGICAL PROCESSES DURING THE SEED FORMATION IN TWO TRIPLOID SPECIES OF Taraxacum Agnieszka Janas, Krystyna Musiał, Maria Kościńska-Pająk1 Jagiellonian University in Kraków Abstract. The present paper reports on our observations on embryological processes occurring in the ovules of triploids: Taraxacum belorussicum (sect. Palustria) and T. atricapillum (sect. Borea). The reproduction of these dandelions comprises meiotic diplospory, parthenogenesis and autonomous endosperm development. Mature seeds contain viable embryos that provide regular seedlings. At present the importance of cytological and embryological studies of apomicts is specially emphasized because Taraxacum is one of the model genus for investigations of apomixis. It forms a polyploid complex within which there is a close relationship between the mode of reproduction and the ploidy level: diploids reproduce sexually, whereas polyploids are apomicts. Apomixis is of a great interest in plant breeding because it allows clonal seed production but asexual seeds formation by apomixis is not found in any crop plants. Unfortunately, to date any attempts at introducing of apomixis into crop species have failed. It is worth mentioning that dandelions are valuable honey plants and numerous species of Taraxacum are also used in modern herbal medicine. Key words: agamic complex, apomixis, dandelion, diplospory, female gametophyte, Nomarski contrast INTRODUCTION The Taraxacum Wigg. genus belongs to the family Asteraceae, the subfamily Cichorioideae, the tribe Cichorieae and the subtribe Crepidinae [Anderberg et al. 2007]. This cosmopolitan genus forms a polyploid complex comprising amphimictic and apomictic taxa. Diploid dandelions reproduce sexually whereas seed formation in polyploid species is realized by gametophytic apomixis, parthenogenesis and autonomous endosperm development [Musiał et al. -
Appendix B Natural History and Control of Nonnative Invasive Species
Appendix B: Natural History and Control of Nonnative Invasive Plants Found in Ten Northern Rocky Mountains National Parks Introduction The Invasive Plant Management Plan was written for the following ten parks (in this document, parks are referred to by the four letter acronyms in bold): the Bear Paw Battlefield-BEPA (MT, also known as Nez Perce National Historical Park); Big Hole National Battlefield-BIHO (MT); City of Rocks National Reserve-CIRO (ID); Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve-CRMO (ID); Fossil Butte National Monument-FOBU (WY); Golden Spike National Historic Site-GOSP (UT); Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site-GRKO (MT); Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument-HAFO (ID); Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument-LIBI (MT); and Minidoka National Historic Site-MIIN (ID).

OAK OPENINGS REGION BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES DANDELION Taraxacum officinale ERADICATE This Best Management Practice (BMP) document provides guidance for managing Dandelion in the Oak Openings Region of Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan. This BMP was developed by the Green Ribbon Initiative and its partners and uses available research and local experience to recommend environmentally safe control practices.

The earliest record of Dandelion in North America comes from nual mean temperature of 40-80°F, and light. It is tolerant of salt, 1672, but it may have arrived earlier. It has been used in medicine, pollutants, thin soils, and high elevations. In the OOR Dandelion has food and beverages, and stock feed.
