This suggests that fire regimes might be useful in removing mature plants and controlling seed numbers on the surface, and that subsequent native seeding of undisturbed areas may assist in the long-term management of this noxious weed. A trial was conducted to determine the effect of treatment with a plant essential oil (pine oil) to limit the seed germination and seedling emergence of G. pubescens. This trial showed that the effects of pine oil application were significant (P<0.05). Germination was completely inhibited by application of pine oil at 5% or higher concentrations directly to seeds, and seedling emergence was reduced by between 90 and 100% in pot trials. These outcomes demonstrate the potential viability of pine oil as a long-term control option for this species. In field-based experiments, control strategies including herbicide control with glyphosate, organic herbicide control with pine oil, the application of mulch, and the addition of native seeds to the available seedbank (and all possible combinations of these techniques), were tested. The study showed that one single treatment of a G. pubescens infestation without undertaking a secondary treatment is insufficient to control the G. pubescens infestation or to encourage native regeneration, but that a combined strategy, employing all the aforementioned techniques, is more effective. It is however suggested that full regeneration of the area may not be possible unless further restoration programs are instituted after the cycle of G. pubescens’ treatment has been completed. The thesis also assessed the control effects of chemical control combined with a prescribed spring burning. Assessment of the resulting aboveground vegetation of G. pubescens has shown that a combination of chemical control and late-spring burning can reduce the cover of non-native species such as G. pubescens, suggesting that this could be a useful tool in their management. Finally, this study has supported the view that the growth of G. pubescens will be significantly enhanced in a future climate with an enriched atmospheric CO2 concentration. These climatic changes will have important implications for management of this noxious weed in the future.]]> Wed 07 Apr 2021 13:56:23 AEST ]]>

In addition, (iv) in order to provide comparative data, adjacent sites (iv) chosen for future restoration and (v) with remnant vegetation, were also sampled. From samples, a total of 8858 seedlings were recorded from the seed bank and the vegetation survey showed 170 species, with exotic species being more numerous than native. The seed rain (a total of 1422 seeds) was dominated by exotic species at all sites. When comparing the vegetation distribution and the seed rain composition, it was clear that whilst the seed bank was more promising as a comparative recruitment source of native species, there were still too many sites dominated by exotic species to rely on this as a long-term restoration strategy. However, this study indicated that there were significant variations in restoration potential among the sites, suggesting that some careful prior site selection for investment of restoration efforts is an important issue. As a consequence, we have recommended that a detailed understanding of the soil seed bank and seed rain species composition prior to the restoration is essential, since a positive seed bank composition with a significant relative density of native species seeds, will provide an indication of native species’ resilience and their potential for recovery. We therefore believe that the findings of this study will provide valuable information to natural resource management agencies regarding the strategy for prioritisation of restoration sites, which will be more beneficial than randomly selecting sites for habitat restoration. In addition, with successful sector restoration, it is expected that the increasing usefulness of the seed bank will allow further restoration of adjacent areas with time. © 2023 The Authors]]> Tue 26 Mar 2024 13:16:10 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:187 Tue 19 Sep 2023 11:59:45 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:193 Tue 19 Sep 2023 11:44:20 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:194 Tue 19 Sep 2023 11:35:48 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:15323 Tue 19 Oct 2021 15:44:18 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:19139 Tue 09 Apr 2024 13:58:14 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:14485 Thu 21 Oct 2021 16:24:31 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:19215 Thu 18 Apr 2024 15:12:12 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:15093 Thu 17 Jun 2021 10:41:37 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:18720 Thu 14 Dec 2023 13:27:13 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:17197 Thu 09 Feb 2023 11:22:49 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:18664 Thu 07 Dec 2023 12:17:20 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:13825 Thu 05 May 2022 12:04:55 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:14066 Thu 02 Sep 2021 15:35:30 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:16566 Mon 24 Oct 2022 14:44:55 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:10785 Mon 20 May 2024 10:19:39 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:16989 Mon 19 Dec 2022 12:17:27 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:19280 Mon 13 May 2024 11:36:11 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:16918 Mon 13 Feb 2023 15:01:08 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:16967 Mon 12 Dec 2022 10:44:38 AEDT ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:18044 Mon 10 Jul 2023 15:28:22 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:18043 Mon 10 Jul 2023 15:21:23 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:2385 Mon 10 Jul 2023 14:31:59 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:17673 Mon 08 May 2023 12:06:43 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:16314 Mon 01 Aug 2022 11:35:57 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:19181 Fri 12 Apr 2024 15:42:10 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:2525 Fri 07 Jul 2023 17:04:59 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:2533 Fri 07 Jul 2023 17:00:12 AEST ]]> http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/manager/Repository/vital:1376 Fri 03 Feb 2023 12:39:34 AEDT ]]>
