Picloram (Tordon): Dr. Jim McHenry (1985) of the University of California, Davis, recommends picloram to control C. pycnocephalus on Nature Conservancy lands. [8] Other rust species have been found on Italian thistle as well. More information can be found by downloading our Written Findings. Western and central Europe, Mediterranean, Macaronesia, Caucasus, Western Asia, Himalayas. MeSH The adults are foliage feeders, but more importantly the larvae mine crowns of rosettes and tips of expanding and expanded shoots, blasting the latter, and thus reduce the production of flowerheads. On soils of naturally high fertility, thistle invasion can be expected at an earlier stage than on poorer soils. Medicinal properties Medicinal parts Has medicinal uses no Do not self-administer no Do no use if pregnant no Legally restricted no Toxicity precautions Medicinal notes . Carduus pycnocephalus reproduces only by seed. Flowers are purple. 1986. Carduus pycnocephalus, with common names including Italian thistle, Italian plumeless thistle, and Plymouth thistle, is a species of thistle. Continuous grazing significantly reduces thistle numbers but is not as effective as the use of an autumn break (Bendall 1973). Flickr photos above were identified by the individual photographers but not reviewed by EoPS. 463 0 obj <>stream were analyzed and characterized by HPLC-PDA-MS/MS and PCR-RFLP of the nrDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS). [5][10], Biological control agents have limited success with Carduus pycnocephalus. The chemical is noncorrosive and is generally considered nonharmful to wildlife. (2019) identified these plants at Turkish thistle, Carduus cinereus. 8600 Rockville Pike According to Goeden (1974), C. pycnocephalus serves as an alternative food-plant or breeding host to a diversity of phytophagous insects, most of which are euryphagous, ectophagous, sap- or foliage-feeding species. 1979). Element Stewardship Abstract; Don Pitcher, Mary J. Russo (revision), 1986. : This plant is also on the Washington State quarantine list. [5][8] Check with local, regional, and national regulations directing use. In many of the countries where it has become naturalized it is . On soils of naturally high fertility, thistle invasion can be expected at an earlier stage than on poorer soils. 1979). It is widely distributed in disturbed open sites, roadsides, pastures, annual grasslands, and waste areas across much of California. For this method to be successful, the autumn grazing break is necessary so that vigorous growth of other plants is allowed to occur, forcing the thistles to grow tall and tender. It survives best at low temperatures with short photoperiods (Kok 1979). Seeds of C. pycnocephalus exhibit rapid germination (within 2 weeks) at optimum temperatures (Evans et al. Mechanical methods can be effective but must be done before the plant sets seed. 1978). In field situations, the added hardship of intra- and interspecific competition may cause a greater effect on thistle populations. This has proven most effective during the spring and early summer. Carduus pycnocephalus was one of the first weeds selected for biological control study by the USDA (Schroeder 1980). Picloram (Tordon): Dr. Jim McHenry (1985) of the University of California, Davis, recommends picloram to control C. pycnocephalus on Nature Conservancy lands. pycnocephalus (L.) DC., 1838 Homonyms Carduus pycnocephalus L. Carduus pycnocephalus Spreng. UFRGS,1-132,2020, Karlsson (2004-03-18 23:00:00) Frteckning ver svenska krlvxter, Monogr. Caffeoylquinic acids; Carduus spp. C. pycnocephalus seeds exhibit polymorphism, with brown seeds that have less mucilage and germinate at lower temperatures than silver seeds. The distance that seeds can be spread by wind is not known, but it is at least several hundred meters. FOIA Unfortunately, half of the identified species of insects found feeding on C. pycnocephalus in southern California are also pests of cultivated plants, thus not good choices for biocontrol. The mucilage is abundant and adhesive enough to aid in seed dispersal (Evans et al. Carduus pycnocephalus Media in category " Carduus pycnocephalus " The following 141 files are in this category, out of 141 total. Seed germination rate in Carduus pycnocephalus is very high, ranging between 83-96%. intermedius - C. p . Larvae of Rhinocyllus conicus feed within the flowerheads of C. pycnocephalus, mining the receptacle and destroying the developing achenes (Goeden 1974, 1978). According to Goeden (1974), C. pycnocephalus serves as an . 1979). It is found in disturbed areas, often with basaltic soils, fertile soils, or soils with a relatively high pH (> 6.5).[5][7]. It was imported into California in 1969 for the biological control of milk thistle (Silybum marianum Gaertn.) Year Listed: 1991 g -pWQ /PzD`,|c4*#?x`(56A} Qf - Carduus species can be distinguished from native and introduced Cirsium species by their simple pappus hairs. . For larger areas where the thistles are dominant, cultivation and cropping is a successful method of control provided a vigorous perennial pasture is established immediately after the cropping phase. 1979). Contact: Larry Serpa, Area Manager. Corollas are pink to purple, approx. Even with freezing temperatures during the daily cold period, germination was optimum if warm-period temperatures were from 5 to 20 C (Evans et al. Global Range: Carduus pycnocephalus originated in western and southern Europe but today is widespread throughout temperate parts of the world. 1979). eCollection 2019. Epub 2022 Jan 27. C. pycnocephalus seeds exhibit polymorphism, with brown seeds that have less mucilage and germinate at lower temperatures than silver seeds. Carduus pycnocephalus, with common names including Italian thistle, Italian plumeless thistle, and Plymouth thistle,[1] is a species of thistle. Additional research needs to be conducted on insects that can be used to control C. pycnocephalus and on the potential impact of these insects upon endangered native Cirsium species (Kok et al. hC:2r)#OH93 0@cxC1!8,j`Ma# 2pXC3,F7h@6KA #;KqAS$ alA0@7-: 1*KP;Kj/Q2cH#65SLK1IH8-:DL`@U`AWVeV The distance that seeds can be spread by wind is not known, but it is at least several hundred meters. Before 1985. Cone sprayers produce greater atomization of the chemicals and increase the chance of drift into unwanted areas. The length of time the seeds can survive in the soil is not known but appears to be at least 8 years (Parsons 1973). Sign up to receive information about Cal-IPC's upcoming events and project updates. The combination of the two techniques discriminates the four species within the genus, giving further information on these little-investigated plants, traditionally used in the Mediterranean area and in Sardinia. 1980). Similarly, plants which are cut close to flowering time can produce seed on the cut portion. It prefers soils of high fertility, and its seedlings establish best on bare or disturbed sites (Wheatley 1971, Parsons 1973). This site needs JavaScript to work properly. Mowing or slashing is not always reliable because the plant can regrow from the base and produce seeds very quickly. Where a presentation is not available, find more information by reading the abstract in the Cal-IPC Symposia Archive. This weevil mainly reproduces on certain thistles belonging to the Carduus-Silybumcirsium complex. The seeds germinate at a wide variety of constant and alternating temperatures. The greatest diurnal fluctuation that supported optimum germination was 10 C for 16 hours and 35 C for 8 hours in each 24-hour period. University of Turin Instituional Repository AperTO. 42: 1157. It prefers soils of high fertility, and its seedlings establish best on bare or disturbed sites (Wheatley 1971, Parsons 1973). [8][12][13], Grazing by sheep or goats (not cattle) in Australia has showed promise as well.[14]. Chem Biodivers. The herbicidal use of oils depends on their chemical and physical properties. In the U.S. it is found in only a few parts of Texas and Arkansas but is rapidly spreading and "out of control" in most of California (Dunn 1976). A Certified Pest Control Applicator should be hired for large jobs or those requiring nonselective herbicides. Nyman, Carduus pycnocephalus L., Carduus cephalanthus Viv.) Seeds are also spread when infested pastures are cut and the hay fed to animals on clean areas. 1. 11681. CRUPY ). Statistical analyses, on both chemical and biomolecular results, revealed that individuals clustered according to their taxonomic classification. The following is a representative barcode sequence, the centroid of all available sequences for this species. subsp. The brown seeds do not usually dehisce from the seedheads, and this may be important in the establishment of these seeds in the seedbed litter (Evans et al. [8][9] Its tendency to grow under the canopy of oaks increases the risk of wildfire damage to the trees, as fire can more easily spread to the canopy. However, caution must be exercised when using these products, and their use is not always appropriate, especially near water surfaces and other sensitive natural habitats. Seeds buried 1.3 cm deep show the highest percentage emergence, whereas 20 to 25% of seeds buried 5 to 10 cm deep remain dormant. pycnocephalus / Plymouth Thistle / Xewk tal-fjura gira. Biological control techniques for Carduus species have been extensively studied. Please click here to see a county level distribution map of Italian thistle in Washington. 2,4-D is lethal to 50% of tested animals (LD50) at 300-1000 mg/kg body weight and is classified as being of "little" to "some" hazard. 2023. Cal-IPCCalifornia Invasive Plant Council species treatment: Mattole Restoration Council: Italian Thistle (, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Carduus_pycnocephalus&oldid=1076346843, Short description is different from Wikidata, Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License 3.0, This page was last edited on 10 March 2022, at 17:14. Then sheep will graze the thistle along with the grass. C. pycnocephalus apparently arrived in California during the 1930s (Goeden 1974). It is most abundant in coastal areas and occurs as a weed of pastures, ranges, roadsides, rural areas, fallow cropland, railroad rights-of-way, field margins, and ditchbanks (Goeden and Ricker 1978). Where does it grow? After their introduction to See Canyon in southern California, the weevil destroyed 90% of the achenes and infested 91% of the capitula; however, the population of C. pycnocephalus did not decline (Goeden and Ricker 1978). Seeds buried 1.3 cm deep show the highest percentage emergence, whereas 20 to 25% of seeds buried 5 to 10 cm deep remain dormant. Seeds buried 1.3 cm deep show the highest percentage emergence, whereas 20 to 25% of seeds buried 5 to 10 cm deep remain dormant. (Hawkes et al. Plant Assessment Form - Information gathered by Cal-IPC on the impacts, rate of spread, and distribution of invasive plants in California. Carduus pycnocephalus Name Synonyms Carduus arabicus subsp. The hydroalcoholic extracts of four wild edible Carduus species collected in Sardinia (Carduus argyroa Biv., Carduus nutans subsp. It is foliar absorbed and translocated, making it effective in destroying the roots. Ex. Each plant profile in the database contains nomenclature info, botanical data, plant description, large, high-resolution pictures, images and photos of the plants and its parts, detailed information such as uses, history . 1979). ; Flavonoids; HPLC-PDA-MS/MS; ITS sequence; PCR-RFLP. [3][4][5], Carduus pycnocephalus has become a noxious weed in Australia, New Zealand, Macaronesia, South Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, South America, Hawaii, and North America, especially in much of California. Our website has detected that you are using an outdated insecure browser that will prevent you from using the site. At a depth of 0.5-2.0 cm germination is highest, but some seeds germinate to a depth of 8 cm (Evans et al. It is most abundant in coastal areas and occurs as a weed of pastures, ranges, roadsides, rural areas, fallow cropland, railroad rights-of-way, field margins, and ditchbanks (Goeden and Ricker 1978). In field situations, the added hardship of intra- and interspecific competition may cause a greater effect on thistle populations. Bookshelf The use of herbicides to control C. pycnocephalus may not be appropriate on natural areas such as Nature Conservancy preserves. At a depth of 0.5-2.0 cm germination is highest, but some seeds germinate to a depth of 8 cm (Evans et al. Ants may also play a role in dispersing the seeds (Uphof 1942). Carduus nutans L. Photo by California Department of Food and Agriculture ")\OYwoybSUU!U?7! xmY@P%i7"ri|? National Library of Medicine Slenderflower thistle, Carduus tenuiflorus, is similar but it generally has more flowerheads (5-20), than Italian thistle, Carduus pycnocephalus (1-5 flowerheads). The necessity for constant monitoring is all the more important given this weed's potentially long seed dormancy period (to 8 years). We won't sell or give away your email address. 1982 . The growth of C. pycnocephalus is favored more by the addition of nitrogen than by phosphorus or potassium. The seeds germinate at a wide variety of constant and alternating temperatures. [2] Selective weed oils: There are several petroleum oils used for weed control. Species descriptions and data provided by: 2012-2023. 1979). Prior to using any herbicide, check with the County Agricultural Commissioner to determine which chemicals are legal to use in a given situation. Marengo A, Maciel LS, Cagliero C, Rubiolo P, Herodes K. Plants (Basel). MECHANICAL CONTROL. The search for its natural enemies has included Italy, Greece, Iran, and Pakistan, as well as southern California (Baloch et al. C. pycnocephalus apparently arrived in California during the 1930s (Goeden 1974). Carduus pycnocephalus L. 3,132 2,252 Observations Slender thistle, Slender winged thistle, Slender-flower thistle, Sheep thistle, Plymouth thistle, Shore thistle, Woolly thistle, Winged slender thistle, Italian thistle, Italian plumeless thistle Carduus pycnocephalus L. World flora Family Compositae Genus . Cal. Monitoring is needed to determine the effectiveness of any C. pycnocephalus control measures. Fl. Brahmi-Chendouh N, Piccolella S, Gravina C, Fiorentino M, Formato M, Kheyar N, Pacifico S. Foods. Accessibility Grazing by sheep, goats, and horses can be effective in controlling thistles, but cattle are of little value (Parsons 1973). Chemical control can be achieved with a variety of products including: Clopyralid, glyphosate, Diquat, Picloram, and 2, 4-D ester. Sixteen edible plants from Southern Italy were evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative properties, using the sulforodamine B (SRB) assay, on four human cancer cell lines: breast cancer MCF-7, prostate cancer LNCaP, amelanotic melanoma C32 and renal adenocarcinoma ACHN. Biological control agents, particularly the weevil Rhinocyllus conicus and the rust Puccinia Carduii-pycnocephali, show considerable promise in controlling C. pycnocephalus. Hand pulling, cultivation, and grazing are all effective control measures. 1981). S. Calif. 11086. 2,4-D ester should be applied when the thistles have a central stock height of no greater than 0.25 m (Wheatley and Collett 1981). The effects of prescribed fire on C. pycnocephalus also need investigation. C. pycnocephalus germinates at temperature and moisture regimes and in seedbed environments which would inhibit the germination of the alien annual grass species that presently dominate California grasslands. It persists in the soil for 1-4 weeks. Naturalized as a weed. [3], Flower heads are 2-5 per cluster, densely matted with cobwebby hairs at the base of the phyllaries and spiny towards the tips. 2022 Mar;19(3):e202100827. Dr. McHenry recommends using a flat-fan nozzle (Spraying Systems Co. #8003 or 8004 nozzle tip) rather than the cone nozzles available on most garden sprayers. Without management it cannot be eliminated and may completely carpet the site. Its spiny leaves, stems, and phyllaries prevent animals from grazing on it and nearby forage. Only three insect species appear to hold promise as biological control agents in California (Goeden 1974). A variety of herbicides have been used on C. pycnocephalus, but they give only temporary control (Wheatley and Collett 1981). 3)uowiF#o (:(#;C High pH (6.5) also favors growth (Bendall 1975). Grubbing hoes must cut the plants 2 to 4 inches below ground level to prevent resprouting from dormant axillary buds. All three species are unknown as artichoke or safflower pests, apparently only reproduce on Cadruinae, cause injury to vital plant parts at a critical growth stage of their host-plant (and thus appear capable of influencing the reproductive potential of C. pycnocephalus), and occur over a relatively wide geographic area. These species are Psylliodes chalsomera, Rhinocyllus conicus, and Ceutorhynchuys trimaculatus. Leaves are pinnately lobed into spiny-lobed segments, with the terminal spine being most prominent. Seeds of C. pycnocephalus exhibit rapid germination (within 2 weeks) at optimum temperatures (Evans et al. The weevil was released on infestations of Italian and slender-flower thistles at 16 sites in 11 counties in northern California during 1975-77 with establishment at most of the sites (Hawkes et al. carduus Carduus pycnocephalus var. If there is reasonable ground cover during the late summer and autumn the thistle will not invade a site, but it will come in following overgrazing or creation of fire breaks (Parsons 1973). 2,4-D does not affect grasses. 0 Mapping weeds and rare plants to inform management and conservation in the Zaca and Jesusita fires. 1981).

Communities: weed, characteristic of disturbed places, Search efloras.org (Flora of North America). Surfactants affect the surface property of the spray by lowering surface tension to increase the herbicide's effectiveness. The fungal rust Puccinia Carduii-pycnocephali Sydow, is known to occur only on the genus Carduus (Batra et al. Phenolic Composition of Inflorescences of Carduus nutans L. Intra-specific variation in the little-known Mediterranean plant Ptilostemon casabonae (L.) Greuter analysed through phytochemical and biomolecular markers. A winter annual, Carduus pycnocephalus stems range from 8 inches (20 cm) to 6.6 feet (2.0 m), and are glabrous to slightly wooly. Carduus species (Compositae) are widely distributed in the Mediterranean area, and traditionally used for both food and medicinal purposes. Herbicides can be applied uniformly over an area (for large infestations) or by spot spraying only the individual plants. Former preserve manager Greg Wolley (1986) has used both hand pulling and cutting to destroy the plants at Ring Mountain Preserve, CA. Seeds are also spread when infested pastures are cut and the hay fed to animals on clean areas. C. pycnocephalus apparently arrived in California during the 1930s (Goeden 1974). [3], The plant grows in a rosettes of 1014 inches (2536cm) in diameter, with four to ten lobed basal leaves that are 46 inches (1015cm) long. Similarly, plants which are cut close to flowering time can produce seed on the cut portion. The seeds start to germinate in the fall with the first effective rain. Italian thistle is a spiny annual or sometimes biennial that can grow 6 to 8 feet in height. Unable to load your collection due to an error, Unable to load your delegates due to an error.
