Cities play important roles in the conservation of global biodiversity, particularly through the planning and management of urban green spaces (UGS). However, UGS management is subject to a complex assortment of interacting social, cultural, and econ

Insect pollinators provide a crucial ecosystem service, but are under threat. Urban areas could be important for pollinators, though their value relative to other habitats is poorly known. We compared pollinator communities using quantified flower-vi

Physiological and Environmental Basis of Turfgrass and Weed Response to Mesotrione Formulations

Autor: Goddard, Matthew Jordan Rhea

Mesotrione is the first triketone herbicide registered for use in turfgrass. Triketones prevent carotenoid biosynthesis by inhibiting the enzyme p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD). Although mesotrione controls many species of grass and broadl
