Parasite Dodder May
Be Killed by 2, ID
Selection Of Clean
Seed Also Essential
BY W. ]. DRYDEN

Field dodder is an annual para
site vine, growing on lespedeza, al
falfa. clover and various members
of the dandelion family. 1t attaches
itself to other plants and sends
small growth into their tissue to abb
sorb the sap.
AS preventive is easier than the
cure, it is essential that only seed
free from dodder be planted. Spots
in fields should be eliminated. This

Circle shows how dOdder wraps
itself around alfalfa to absorb the
sap.
is possible by the use Of 2,4-D weed
killer. While the 2,4-D also will kill
lespedeza and other plants in the
sprayed areas, the loss usually will
prove negligible as the dodder usu-
ally will be confined to small scat
tered areas.
The labor involved in cutting out
dodder is excessive and it is almost
impossible to remove all of the para
site by this method. Infested fields
may be planted to grain or corn for
several years. These crops are not
attacked, but care should be taken
that the dodder does not continue
growing on weeds in the field.

bolt makes good fall crop from
midsummer paintings. 1t produces
