  1. Control measures for the encroacher shrub <em>Seriphium plumosum</em>

    Control measures for the encroacher shrub Seriphium plumosum

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: South African Journal of Plant and Soil • Authors: HA Snyman --- Department of Animal, Wildlife and Grassland Sciences, South Africa
    Seriphium plumosum encroachment in South Africa has converted extensive areas of grassland into less productive shrubland–grassland, but its control is not being seriously addressed at present. Therefore, the short-term response of S. plumosum to different applications of nitrogen (N), phosphate...
  2. Allelopathic potential, seed ecology and germination of the encroacher shrub <em>Seriphium plumosum</em>

    Allelopathic potential, seed ecology and germination of the encroacher shrub Seriphium plumosum

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Range & Forage Science • Authors: HA Snyman --- Department of Animal, Wildlife and Grassland Sciences, South Africa
    Seriphium plumosum encroachment in South Africa has converted extensive areas of grassland into less productive shrubland-grassland. In addition to its competitive ability, it is hypothesised that the encroachment of S. plumosum is linked to the allelopathic potential of the plant...
  3. Short-term response of the encroacher shrub <em>Seriphium plumosum</em> to fire

    Short-term response of the encroacher shrub Seriphium plumosum to fire

    Item type: Journal Article • Journal: African Journal of Range & Forage Science • Authors: HA Snyman --- Department of Animal, Wildlife and Grassland Sciences, South Africa
    Quantification of the short-term impact of burning in terms of the encroacher shrub Seriphium plumosum and grass tuft mortality, seed germination of the shrub (field and seed bank), aboveground phytomass production, plant density and basal cover of the grass sward...
