UC Weed Science (weed control, management, ecology, and minutia)

Greetings all. I'll get back to some serious posts, soon. However, I thought I would celebrate the turning of the seasons with song. Nerdy songs. Songs only a scientist could love. FYI, some of these come with annoying commercials that you need to skip...Enjoy.

From the Topics in Subtropics blog :: July 5, 2013 It is not always easy to kill weeds with herbicides for several reasons, but if you apply the right material at the right time to susceptible weeds you expect control.

See the attached position advertisement for a postdoctoral research position at the Rice Experiment Station in Biggs, CA.

From the Alfalfa & Forage News blog :: Feb. 18, 2013 Dodder is a troublesome annual parasitic weed that infests alfalfa fields.
