Methods in Weed Ecology: Glue Retains Seeds in Shatter-Prone Seedheads
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 January 2017
Abstract
The difficulty of measuring fecundity of weeds with shatter-prone seeds can be overcome by postanthesis application of nontoxic glues to seedheads. Such glues reduced seed losses of redroot pigweed to <5% of total seed production compared with 12 to 14% for nontreated plants.
