Body

The response of wildlife food plants to spring discing of mesquite rangeland was studied in northwest Texas during 1978-80. Discing increased the canopy coverage and frequency of Halls panicum but usually decreased coverage and frequency of other grasses for at least 1 year. Discing promoted western ragweed, amaranth, hairy false-nightshade, scarlet gaura, scarlet globemallow, green carpetweed, and silverleaf nightshade and discouraged yellow woodsorrel, plantain, common broomweed, and Gordon bladderpod.
