Dr. Marie Jasieniuk from the UC Davis Department of Plant Sciences (and the weed science program) was recently invited to give the "David W. Staniforth Memorial Lecture" at Iowa State University.
Her presentation was entitled "Managing the Evolution of Weed Adaptations"
From an Iowa State University press release:
The Staniforth Lecture series is presented in honor of David W. Staniforth, former agronomy professor and Iowa State alumnus. It is sponsored by the Staniforth Fund in the Department of Agronomy at Iowa State. Staniforth taught at Iowa State from 1949 to 1960 and was a pioneer in the field of weed science. He was particularly interested in weed biology and ecology. His experience spanned the development of modern herbicides through refinements in weed control systems including those used in conservation tillage.
As an ISU alum myself, I'll add in my "Go Cyclones" here. -Brad
