Field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis): “all tied up”

Aspergillus leaf spot of field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.) caused by Aspergillus niger in China

Leaf spot was found on field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.) in Shihezi City, Xinjiang Province, China, during the summer of 2015. Pathogens were isolated from the infected leaves of field bindweed and identified as Aspergillus niger based on morphological and molecular analyses (internal transcribed spacer rDNA and β-tubulin gene). A pathogenicity test confirmed that Aspergillus niger cause...

Towards the management of field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis) and hedge bindweed (Calystegia sepium) with fungal pathogens and cover crops

The bindweeds Calystegia sepium and Convolvulus arvensis are difficult to control chemically. Calystegia sepium is often a problem in maize or in vineyards, while C. arvensis is an important weed of cereals. The biological control of these weeds with insects or fungal pathogens has been investigated since 1970. More than 600 fungi collected in countries throughout Europe have been isolated in o...

Effect of combined and split applications of phomopsis convolvulus and dicamba on control of field bindweed (convolvulus arvensis L.)

Tropane alkaloids and toxicity of Convolvulus arvensis.

Horses in a few, localized northern Colorado pastures exhibited weight loss and colic. At post mortem, intestinal fibrosis and vascular sclerosis of the small intestine was identified. The pastures where the affected horses grazed were overrun by field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis). Bindweed from the pasture was found to contain the tropane alkaloids tropine, pseudotropine, and tropinone and ...

identification the field bindweed (convolvulus arvensis) biotypes in three areas of tehran province

morphophysiological variations of field bindweed populations in tehran province was studied during 2006 and 2007 growing seasons using multivariate analysis methods. to determine the variations, 43 morphological and physiological characters were considered biometrically.  the main characters at principal component analysis (pca) consisted of leaf dry weight, shoot dry weight, and leaf area to i...
