New article series on the "World of Weeds"
This is the first in a series of articles discussing the ecology and management of select weed species. Most will be of agronomic importance, but our first species is one of popular interest for the Christmas season, mistletoe! Mistletoes in the U.S. are typically found on fir, oak, pecan, and walnut trees. The mistletoe most likely to be found in Kansas is oak mistletoe.
