Two links to recent BBC news articles on invasive weeds. The first one is about a weed that should be familiar to anyone who has traveled in much of the intermountain west - cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum).

Before I go out the door for the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, I wanted to share a link to the recent Western IPM Center newsletter, The Western Front.

I received a press release this week from the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) that I thought would be interesting to repost here.
