Nutrient availability does not explain invasion and dominance of a mixed grass prairie by the exotic forb Centaurea diffusa Lam
Diffuse knapweed (Centaurea diffusa) is a noxious non-native forb that is currently invading and dominating western North American grasslands. We established a series of fertilization, reverse fertilization, and removal experiments in grasslands east of the Colorado Front Range, USA, to examine the response of C. diffusa and the rest of the grassland community to changes in nutrient availabilit...
متن کاملSuccessful biological control of diffuse knapweed, Centaurea diffusa, in British Columbia, Canada
The biological control program for diffuse knapweed, Centaurea diffusa Lamarck, a Eurasian plant that has invaded large areas of grasslands in western North America, has gone on for over 35 years. This program involved the release of 12 biological control agents of which four are numerous and widely distributed; two species of Tephritid flies, Urophora affinis and Urophora quadrifasciata, the r...
متن کاملHybridization and invasion: an experimental test with diffuse knapweed (Centaurea diffusa Lam.)
A number of studies have suggested a link between hybridization and invasion. In this study, we experimentally test the potential for hybridization to influence invasion through a greenhouse common garden study. Diffuse knapweed (DK) (Centaurea diffusa Lam.) was introduced to North America with admixture from spotted knapweed (SK) (Centaurea stoebe subsp. stoebe L.). Comparisons between North A...
متن کاملNutrient uptake of peanut genotypes under different water regimes
Drought is a serious environmental stress limiting growth and productivity in peanut and other crops. Nutrient uptake of peanut is reduced under drought condition, which reduces yield. The objectives of this study were to investigate nutrient uptake of peanut genotypes in response to drought and to estimate the relationship between nutrient uptake and peanut yield under different water regi...
