Body

Use of 2,4-D in an alpine plant community in the Medicine Bow Mountains of Wyoming almost completely eliminated Geum rossii. The graminoid: forb ratio of the vegetation was altered from approximately 3:7 to 8:2 without appreciably changing total standing crop or its digestible dry matter content. Resurgence of forbs could not be detected up to 4 years after treatment.
