Cultural and Chemical Control of Ground Ivy (Glechoma hederacea)

Ground ivy is a common broadleaf weed that disrupts turf uniformity and is diffi cult to control. The objective of this fi eld research was to evaluate cultural and chemical control of ground ivy. Increasing annual nitrogen fertilizer applications from 0 to 196 and 293 kg·ha–1 reduced ground ivy cover by 24% and 32%, respectively. At 26 weeks after treatment, 1.1 kg·ha–1 isoxaben applied in May...

- D Rate Response , Absorption , and Translocation of Two Ground Ivy Populations Eric Kohler

Rationale Ground ivy is a stoloniferous, perennial weed that can persist in turf. Growing at soil level, stolons infiltrate surrounding vegetation and establish new populations, which result in non-uniform turf. Approximately 62,000 lbs of 2,4-D were applied to Indiana homelawns in 1992.. A 2001 survey of Indiana lawn care operators (LCO) found 79% of respondents used 2,4-D either alone or in c...

The Tn antigen-specific lectin from ground ivy is an insecticidal protein with an unusual physiology.

Leaves of ground ivy (Glechoma hederacea) contain a lectin (called Gleheda) that is structurally and evolutionary related to the classical legume lectins. Screening of a population of wild plants revealed that Gleheda accounts for more than one-third of the total leaf protein in some clones, whereas it cannot be detected in other clones growing in the same environment. Gleheda is predominantly ...

System Description: IVY

IVY is a veriied theorem prover for rst-order logic with equality. It is coded in ACL2, and it makes calls to the theorem prover Otter to search for proofs and to the program MACE to search for coun-termodels. Veriications of Otter and MACE are not practical because they are coded in C. Instead, Otter and MACE give detailed proofs and models that are checked by veriied ACL2 programs. In additio...
