Evolution of Specialization of Cassida rubiginosa on Cirsium arvense (Compositae, Cardueae)
The majority of herbivorous insects are specialized feeders restricted to a plant family, genus, or species. The evolution of specialized insect-plant interactions is generally considered to be a result of trade-offs in fitness between possible hosts. Through the course of natural selection, host plants that maximize insect fitness should result in optimal, specialized, insect-plant association...

متن کاملAbsorption and Translocation of Aminocyclopyrachlor and Aminocyclopyrachlor-Methyl Ester in Canada Thistle (Cirsium arvense)
Laboratory studies were conducted using C-aminocyclopyrachlor (DPX-MAT28) and its C-methyl ester formulation (DPX-KJM44) to (1) determine the adjuvants’ effects on absorption, (2) compare the absorption and translocation of aminocyclopyrachlor free acid with the methyl ester, and (3) determine the rate at which aminocyclopyrachlor-methyl ester is metabolized to the free acid in Canada thistle. ...
متن کاملProduction and Wind Dispersal of Canada Thistle (Cirsium arvense L.) Achenes
Quantity, quality and dispersal distance of wind-blown achenes and pappi were determined during the peak time of dispersal over twelve site-years in Minnesota during 2006 and 2007. Approximately twice as many pappi than achenes were trapped. Wind blown pappi tend to travel near the ground. Most achenes fell near the parent plants and their population density declined exponentially with increasi...
متن کاملEnhancing incidence of Puccinia punctiformis, through mowing, to improve management of Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense)
Biological control of Canada thistle using Puccinia punctiformis has been largely unsuccessful in part due to a low incidence of systemically infected shoots and heterogeneous distribution of teliospores in the soil. The present study investigated the feasibility of strategic mowing to improve incidence of systemically infected shoots, and enhance intraand/or inter-season disease development in...
