Résumé :
|
The giant hogweed Heracleum mantegazzianum is a pernicious invasive species. From its native area, the Caucasus, it has spread across Europe creating serious problems displacing and overtaking native plants, and reducing wildlife. This book is a compendium of current knowledge on this amazing invasive plant and will facilitate improved management. Topics covered include taxonomy, genetics, reproductive ecology, and invasion dynamics at regional and local scales. It also reviews the possibilities of mechanical, chemical and biological control, and control by grazing.
