Chronic Poisoning in a Lamb Grazing Phalaris Arundinacea

(Phalaris arundinacea L.), and Native Plants in Wisconsin Wet Meadows

1 Corresponding author: [email protected]; (608) 238-4673; fax: (608) 262-7509 ABSTRACT: Twelve wet meadows in Dane County, Wisconsin showed vegetation patterns that correlate with hydrologic disturbance and presence of a clonal invasive grass, Phalaris arundinacea L., at two scales, 4500-m2 (0.45 ha) “sites” and 1-m2 plots. Sites with indicators of hydrologic disturbance had lower species rich...

Phalaris arundinacea Control and Riparian Restoration within Agricultural Watercourses in King County, Washington

Correlation of Soil Nutrient Characteristics and Reed Canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea: Poaceae) Abundance in Northern Illinois (USA)

—Phalaris arundinacea L. (reed canarygrass) is an aggressive graminoid species that invades wetlands in much of the northern United States. In areas previously used for agriculture and other recently disturbed habitats, P. arundinacea out-competes the native flora and creates monocultures, which reduce biodiversity and alter ecosystem functioning. Much research has focused on the growth respons...

Prospects for Disrupting Rhizome Apical Dominance Prior to Chemical Treatment of Phalaris arundinacea

Reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) is a widely distributed invasive species that dominates many natural areas and restoration sites. Cost-effective suppression and restoration strategies need to be developed for plant communities affected by this species. Pretreatments designed to disrupt rhizome apical dominance may augment herbicide performance by making reed canarygrass rhizomes more su...
