1 What s New in Weed Biocontrol in California Michael J. Pitcairn California Department of Food and Agriculture Sacramento
2 Classical Weed Biological Control A method of weed control where natural enemies from a weed s native range are introduced into the exotic range where the weed as become invasive. The objective is for the exotic natural enemy to become self-sustaining members of the herbivore community in the new area of infestation. Most common biological control method used against weeds
3 THEORY OF BIOLOGICAL CONTROL: Density dependent mortality lowers the average density of the weed population PEST DENSITY INTRODUCTION P1 P2 TIME
