There Are Several Native British Buttercups. They Grow in a Wide Range of Habitats Including Meadows and Marshes and Other Wet Places GET TO KNOW YOUR BUTTERCUPS There are several native British buttercups. They grow in a wide range of habitats including meadows and marshes and other wet places. These flowers have five, shiny yellow petals and lots of stamens. Here we look more closely at three of the most common species of buttercup. Meadow Buttercup (Ranunculus acris) Do you like butter...? Hold a buttercup under your chin to see!

Carolyn Sarah Lusk 2012 ii ABSTRACT Giant buttercup (Ranunculus acris L.) is a serious weed of dairy pastures throughout New Zealand causing substantial economic losses from lost pasture productivity. It has developed resistance to the phenoxy herbicides (MCPA and MCPB) at many sites around New Zealand, particularly in Golden Bay. Since the discovery of resistance in the 1980s, two newer herbicides from a different mode-of-action group (acetolactate synthase inhibitor, ALS), flumetsulam and thifensulfuron-methyl, have been used widely, which appeared to overcome the resistance problem. A survey of farmers in Golden Bay indicated that most have herbicide control programmes for giant buttercup based around flumetsulam but some have reported poor control with this herbicide, particularly after several years of use. The research in this thesis was undertaken to determine whether this may be due to evolved resistance. Seedling progeny from 15 populations of giant buttercup, with known spraying history, were sprayed with a range of doses of flumetsulam, thifensulfuron-methyl and MCPA (Experiment 1) to test for differences in susceptibility. The experiment revealed a large difference in susceptibility between the populations (83-100% and 58-100% mortality at the recommended rate and 2.2 times that rate of flumetsulam applied, respectively).

  • The Ranunculus Acris L. Complex in Europe S
    Watsonia, 8, 237-261 (1971). 237 The Ranunculus acris L. complex in Europe s. M. COLES Department ofBotany, Birmingham University ABSTRACT The geographical variation of the Ranunculus acris L. complex within Europe has been exam­ ined. The following taxa are recognised in this present work: Ranunculus granatensis Boiss. R. strigulosus Schur R. acris L. sensu stricto subsp. acris var. acris var. ,,;llosus (Drabble) S. M. Coles, comb. et stat. novo var. pumilus Wahlenb. subsp. borealis (Trautv.) Nyman subsp.friesanus (Jord.) Rouy & Fouc. var.friesanus var.pyrenaeus S. M. Coles, var. novo R. granatensis and R. strigulosus have a restricted distribution and are relatively uniform in appearance. R. acris sensu stricto occurs over most of Europe and is a very variable plant. The main clinal variation in R. acris is in an east-west direction. R. acris subsp. friesanus forms no part of this variational pattern although its distribution is completely overlapped by that of subsp. acris. INTRODUCTION The plants investigated in this study are those included in Ranunculus acris L. as defined by Tutin (1964). R. acris L. sensu stricto in the present study excludes R. acris subsp. granatensis (Boiss.) Nyman and subsp. strigulosus (Schur) Hyl., which are given specific status. The R. acris complex belongs to the section Ranunculus of the subgenus Ranunculus. It can be separated from most other European species of this section by having a terete pedicel, patent sepals and a glabrous receptacle. The diploid chromosome number of R. acris L. sensu stricto is 14; within the genus a basic chromosome number of 8 is more common than one of 7.

New plants may persist over gardens and lawns to wetlands. winter as small rosettes. Prefers moist conditions. Impacts Fresh plants are toxic to grazing animals. Extremely aggressive growth; one plant can spread over a 40-square-foot area in one year. Depletes potassium in soil, which has a detrimental effect on surrounding plants. Invades wet, grassy areas, outcompeting native plants. Aggressive in crop fields, ornamental landscapes, and pastures. Distribution Found in pastures, farmlands, and natural wetlands, as well as city gardens, lawns, and along woodland trails. Grows especially well in wet, Flowers are bright yellow and usually poorly drained areas. Tolerant of compacted soils and grazing. have 5 petals.
