Investigators advise spraying plants just at or during first bloom when the root carbohydrates are at their lowest. It was first reported in Pennsylvania in 1812 and in Maine in 1824. Holm, L., D.L. When the above-ground biomass of field bindweed is destroyed, the massive root system forms a new shoot and reserves are thus depleted. Cattle will not readily graze on field bindweed and poisoning has been reported. In New York it was observed feeding on field bindweed and C. sepium to the point of complete defoliation while leaving other plants such as rye and corn were untouched. in the Great Plains) may decrease the effectiveness of herbicides, perhaps because droughts or frost may cause plants to become dormant or semi-dormant. Mulching improves the soil because it increases the temperature and moisture and, as a result, nitrification. [10] Field bindweed fruits usually contain 2 seeds, but 1-4 seeds are not uncommon; an anomalous Russian specimen was found with 10 seeds in a capsule. The effect of 2,4-D on field bindweed. [7] Each flower is subtended by a pair of pointed, linear bracts located approximately 1.5-2.5 cm below the flower and often appressed to the stem. [9] The most common leaf type is hastate or sagittate, which means they have distinctive arrowhead shapes with pointed lobes at the bases. [40] If light reduction is used as a means of control the area must be continuously monitored for breaks. Phillips and Timmons (1954)[47] showed that under arid conditions sorghum and sudan grass were excellent competitors. Application of 2,4-D at 1.1 kg/ha alone reduced infestations by only 73%. There are two varieties: Convolvulus arvensis var. Rea. Journal of Agronomy Research 60:391-414. Growers Weed Identification Handbook. Kratochvil, J. Hay & L.M. Meanwhile, O’Brien and O’Brien (1994) found that a very late fall application of Roundup and 2,4-D from a commercial spray rig did little to control field bindweed. 1959. Indiana Invasiveness Rank: Invasiveness Ranking Summary Water-impermeable seed dormancy. Flora of Tamil Nadu, VOL. [32] The lateral roots are generally found within the top 30 cm of soil [5] but approximately 1/3 of the total root system is in the vertical roots below the 60 cm zone. Hastate. Derscheid, L.A., D.E. Field bindweed may be mildly toxic to some grazing animals. Sa’ad, F. 1967. In agricultural systems a smother crop such as millet, sorghum, sudan grass, or alfalfa may be effective to control field bindweed if it is sufficiently competitive. white or light pink, funnel-shaped (petals fused), two leafy bracts at base; solitary, long stalked, axillary [6] The species was present in every county in Idaho by 1955, occupying 570 km2 (140,000 acres) of cropland. The National Vegetation Survey (NVS) Databank is a physical archive and electronic databank containing records of over 94,000 vegetation survey plots - including data from over 19,000 permanent plots. The soil moisture relationship of European bindweed growing in corn. (1990)[6], however, found that continuous, intensive grazing with sheep over a period of several years can temporarily suppress field bindweed, but that it is likely to fully recover when grazing ceases. 1946. When 96-190 cm long, some lateral roots begin growing downward. It may be difficult to find native species that can outcompete field bindweed. Scientific Name: Convolvulus arvensis: Common Name: bindweed, field: Family: Convolvulaceae: Print with name - Print without name Members of the Convolvulaceae Family (Thumbnails): Calonyction muricatum; Calystegia sepium; Convolvulus arvensis; Cuscuta spp. Timmons (1949)[44] found that the number of bindweed seedlings increased with the number of tillage operations in a cropping system. [62] Investigators have unsuccessfully tried to correlate the morphology of field bindweed strains with their herbicide resistance.[60][63]. 1974. [27][19] Gray (1970)[1] suggests a growth period of June to September for the northeastern United States. [23], Field bindweed is now a serious weed problem in all parts of the continental USA, except for the southeastern states. About the Catalogue of Life; What's new? Dall’armellina, A.A. & Zimdahl, R.L. Better control was achieved where more water was available. Russ, O.G. Proceedings North Central Weed Control Conference, pp.90-91. 1993. [6] Under dry conditions the application can be made later in the summer if the vines become more vigorous. Field bindweed is extremely persistent as seed (Porter & Brown, 1952). University of California Press, Berkeley, CA. (per Weaver & Riley 1982). It can be obtained in various weight and widths, with or without perforations, and can be laid in strips. 1985. Bronder-Offset, Rotterdam, 287pp. An Illustrated Flora of the Northern United States and Canada. Quimby, Jr., G.L. Mulligan, G.A., J.N. It is a weak-stemmed, prostrate plant that can twine and may form dense tangled mats.Stems can grow to 1.5m or longer, and its underground rhizomes may range from 5cm to 2.6m long. Physis 6:220-237. Rank: Species. Wiese, A.F. [3] Other common names are ‘possession vine,’ ‘creeping jenny,’ ‘creeping charlie’ [4], ‘field morning-glory,’ ‘orchard morning-glory’ [3], ‘European bindweed’ [5], ‘corn-bind,’ ‘morning-glory’ [6], and ‘small-flowered morning-glory’. Phillips, W.M. Alcock et al. Selleck, G.W. mallow bindweed. Miller, R. Parker, J.P. Yenish, R.H. Callihan, C. Eberlein, G.A. Klags, E.G. Under moderately rainy conditions field bindweed will be more vigorous and therefore better controlled by herbicides. Genus: Convolvulus L. Common Name: BINDWEED. Convolvulus arvensis is a perennial vine. Best (1963a)[34] investigated the spread of field bindweed by monitoring 25 shoots growing from transplants under non-competitive conditions. The influence of environment on growth and control of field bindweed. The edges of the mulch should be secured with rocks or soil. Leaves of this species are extremely variable, possibly reflecting variability in soil moisture and fertility. 1991. Each fruit contains a single seed with sharp angles and pointed ends. [64] Today agronomists apply it frequently in conjunction with other chemicals. [7][10] Estimates of the number of seeds in a pure stand of field bindweed range from 50,000 to 20 million per hectare.[7]. Calystegia sepium L. is native to the eastern United States, but is now found throughout the country [16][6][17] and occurs in waste areas and fence rows.[6]. Absorption and translocation of glyphosate in tolerant and susceptible biotypes of bindweed (. NativeIntroducedNative and Introduced. 1996. Sherrick, S.L., H.A. 1967. Wiese, A.F. & M.W. Ahrens, W.H. The extensive roots can measure 6.6m long and penetrate deeply into the soil.[4]. Bean, C.D. In the first year, new shoots reached 46-130 cm from the parent plant and in the second year were as far as 180 cm to 290 cm from the parent plant. Convolvulus Convolvulus arvensis Scientific classification Kingdom: Plantae Clade: Tracheophytes Clade: Angiosperms Clade: Eudicots Clade: Asterids Order: Solanales Family: Convolvulaceae Tribe: Convolvuleae Genus: Convolvulus L. Type species Convolvulus arvensis L. Species List of Convolvulus species Convolvulus /kənˈvɒlvjuːləs/ is a genus of about 200 to 250 species of flowering plants in the bindweed family Convolvulaceae, with a cosmopolitan distribution. 1970. In Colorado, field bindweed was controlled with picloram. (1990)[6] found that perennial grasses compete well with field bindweed because they grow early in the season and take advantage of the limited moisture. Convolvulus is derived from the Latin, convolere, meaning to entwine, and arvensis means ‘of fields’. The website also provides access to a database and images of herbarium specimens found at the University of South Florida and other herbaria. Not only do hand sprayers allow more precise application of herbicides, Duncan-Yerkes and Weller (1996)[52] showed that lower spray volumes of glyphosate promoted herbicide absorption through better coverage and increased herbicide/surfactant concentration. Rolston, M.P. from the surrounding vegetation or restoration efforts), and continuous monitoring for resprouts. 1950b. Picloram is known to remain active in soils for a number of years and may contaminate soils to 3m [53]so should not be used in the vicinity of orchards, vines and gardens [72], or water. Field bindweed: A growth stage indexing system and its relation to control with glyphosate.

Purrington, F.F., D.H. Stinner. Some leaves are round, ovate or oblong, and some may even be linear. Weed Seed Handbook. Strong sunlight and moderate-to-low moisture appear to be optimal conditions for the growth of this species (Kogan, 1986; pers. Convolvulis arvensis | Memorial … Tilling may be useful for ridding infestations at sites previously used for agriculture, or which are otherwise very disturbed. It has been used in traditional medicine, and extracts from the leaves are sold as dietary supplements. 1945. Cox, H.R. Proceedings North Central Weed Control Conference p. 55-57. [7] Overall, crop yields can be reduced to 50-60% where infestations are dense. Gleason, H.A., A. Cronquist. [7] In Canada the name ‘liseron des champs’ (translation: field bindweed) may be used. Scientific Name: Western Society of Weed Science, Bozeman, MT. (1996)[21] found that winter wheat in the Texas panhandle effectively controls field bindweed because it grows early in the season while most plants are still dormant, and reduces the available water. In a 1995 survey, managers for The Nature Conservancy preserves ranked the likelihood of control “medium” to “low.” On two preserves, managers successfully reduced field bindweed populations (Youtie, 1994; Swarz, pers. Washington Agronomy Experimental Station Popular Bulletin, #176. The application of physiological methods to weed control. Quinclorac was not used alone. Weeds 8:244. 1944. Managers there believe that field bindweed outcompetes native grasses. For best results, the cultivator should be capable of cutting 15cm below the soil surface. [12] Plants with characteristics intermediate to those of these varieties are common in North America, further discouraging the use of the varietal names in the USA.
