Sparganium eurycarpum: Maiz-Tome, L.

Outdoor experiments were conducted at two locations in Minnesota to characterize the growth, development, and vegetative reproduction potential of giant burreed grown with and without wild rice. Giant burreed growth was influenced by environment more than the presence of wild rice. Shoots emerged from corms 2 to 3 wk after planting (WAP), and continued throughout the growing season. Giant burreed attained a maximum height of 135 cm with an average 36 shoots/plant. Rhizome production started 4 to 6 WAP, and continued throughout the growing season. Corm formation at the base of shoots started 8 WAP and continued throughout the growing season. Rhizomes grew to a maximum cumulative length of 2500 cm/plant spreading in all directions and produced up to 250 buds/plant. Corm and rhizome bud viability was 15 and 10%, respectively. These data suggest that giant burreed grown in wild rice should be controlled by 2 to 3 wk after emergence to prevent vegetative reproduction.

Sparganium Eurycarpum

Studies were conducted at Grand Rapids, MN, to determine the effect of giant burreed (Sparganium eurycarpumEngelm. # SPGEU) planted at 6, 12, and 24 corms/m2on wild rice (Zizania palustrisL. ‘K2′) growth and yield. Giant burreed, a spreading perennial, had shoot densities of 21, 29, and 42/m2at harvest for the 6, 12, and 24 corms/m2treatments, respectively. Wild rice yield and panicle number were reduced approximately 60% when giant burreed shoot density was 40/m2or higher when compared to the weed-free control. Giant burreed did not interfere with nutrient uptake of wild rice on a whole-plant basis, and increased N fertilizer application did not reduce losses in dry weight. Giant burreed reduced penetration of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) from 2 to 35% in the wild rice canopy from the early tillering to the anthesis stage of wild rice development. In growth chamber studies, wild rice dry weight and panicle number were reduced by 46 and 65%, respectively, when wild rice was shaded for 12 weeks and compared to a full light treatment. Reduction of PAR penetration into the wild rice canopy appears to be the major mechanism of giant burreed interference with wild rice.

The response of giant burreed to bentazon, propanil, 2,4-D (amine salt), and 2,4-D plus crop oil (0.5% v/v) was evaluated at the 2-aerial-leaf stage of wild rice. Bentazon, 2,4-D, and 2,4-D plus crop oil at 1.1 kg/ha or more in 1984, and propanil and 2,4-D plus crop oil at 4.5 kg/ha in 1985 reduced giant burreed dry weight. Generally, herbicide rates above 1.1 kg/ha injured wild rice and reduced yields compared to weed-free controls. None of the study treatments resulted in effective giant burreed control without unacceptable injury to wild rice.

Typha angustifolia L. and Typha ×glauca Godron have increased their ranges on the North American continent over the past 150 years, and the pollen record has potential to document this spread. In T. angustifolia, pollen disperses as a reticulate, monoporate monad, similar in appearance to the pollen of Sparganium eurycarpum Engelm. Typha angustifolia and Sparganium are generally not distinguished, and T. ×glauca is rarely shown on pollen diagrams. My study of pollen reference material shows that Typha monads and Sparganium can be separated using diameter and roundness at a known level of statistical confidence. Typha monads are on average significantly smaller in diameter (mean and standard deviation = 22.7 ± 2.6 µm) than Sparganium (25.3 ± 2.7 µm). The incidence of angularity is higher in T. angusti folia pollen grains, whereas Sparganium grains are more often rounded. The pollen signature of T. ×glauca consists of mostly monads, but can contain up to 30% dyads, and (or) 14% tetrads, and (or) 10% triads. I suggest that T. angusti folia and T. ×glauca can be identified as one category in the pollen record and, where their dates of arrival are known, this category may be used as a chronostratigraphic indicator.Key words: Typha, Sparganium, pollen, invasive species, wetlands.

Sparganium Eurycarpum

Field and laboratory experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of glyphosate concentration, surfactant concentration, and ammonium sulfate on the control of giant burreed when applied through a ropewick applicator. Under non-flooded conditions, a 30% (v/v) solution of glyphosate applied with a ropewick applicator gave the highest giant burreed injury in 1987 and 1988, and reduced corm and rhizome viability compared to the nontreated control in 1987. Warm, dry conditions may have been responsible for poor long-term control in 1988 by reducing translocation of glyphosate to rhizomes. Addition of ammonium sulfate or surfactant did not influence glyphosate toxicity to giant burreed when applied with a ropewick applicator. In the laboratory, leaf necrosis at the point of application was observed with surfactant at 0.6% or 1.2% regardless of glyphosate concentration. Absorption of14C-glyphosate increased two-fold with the addition of surfactant, and translocation to roots and rhizomes decreased almost two-fold as surfactant concentration was increased from 0 to 1.2%. Electrolyte leakage increased with 30% glyphosate when surfactant concentration was increased from 0 to 1.2%. Localized leaf necrosis and disruption of tissues inside the leaf may be responsible for reduced giant burreed control with glyphosate and surfactant applied in high concentrations.
