While some woody weeds have been targets for classical biological control, only a few of these reach a size large enough to be considered trees. In 1986, a long-term project was initiated to develop biological control agents for Melaleuca quinquenerv

Many members of the tribe Cardueae are invasive weeds, including yellow starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis L.), one of the most important weeds in the Western United States. We examined the root crowns and stems of yellow starthistle and related pla
