Junior champion awards went Climate Changes Could Affect Pests AMES, lowa Some insect and weed pests’ ability to damage crops could be boosted if carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere increase, a U.S. Department of Agriculture scientist said. Plant physiologist David Patter son said research indicates that increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and potential global climate changes can alter growth rates, distribution, and agricultural impact of weeds and insect pests. “Some, but certainly not all weeds or insects, will gain a com petitive edge due to carbon diox ide increases and possible green house effects,” said Patterson of USDA’s Agricultural Research Service. “Others may lose ground.” He said research has shown that elevated carbon dioxide levels can increase the growth rate of some important crops. That highter rate could offset direct increases in competing weeds, said Patterson, who is at the ARS Plant Physiolo gy and Photosynthesis Research Unit at Raleigh, N.C. Increasing carbon dioxide levels can cause physiological and chemical changes in plants, Pat terson said at the First Internation al Crop Science Congress here. And through the greenhouse effect on climate changes the tempera- ture, precipitation and wind pat- IV J| terns are likely to have additional 11 0% indirect effects. “For example, cogongrass, a RIBBBw notorious perennial weed from the 9990W0 m 90909090% lo Jennifer Kellerman, of Centre Hall RD 2; and Thomas Greenleaf.

Monica Goshem took the senior award in Milking Shorthorn com petition with a senior 3-year-old. Monica took all other Shorthorn awards with the exception of Jason Heeter who placed second in summer yearlings. Monica is from Blairs Mills and Heeler from Shade Gap. Old World, is currently confined to the Gulf Coast states in the U. 5.,” he said. “But if warming occurs, this weed could become much more aggressive and widespread,” he said. “Other researchers have indi cated that kudzu and Japanese honeysuckle could extend their range north by more than 100 miles.” Also, grass weeds such as itch grass and Texas panicum could expand northward, creating a new weed problem in the U.S. corn belt, Patterson said. The effects of elevated carbon dioxide on insects are uneven, according to Patterson. For some leaf-eating insects such as the soybean looper, carbon dioxide effects on host plants can lead to increases in feeding rates of as much as 80 percent. Howev er, insects that feed on plant sap do not appear to be affected by the changes caused in plants grown under the elevated carbon dioxide. Global temperature increases are likely to also increase the sur vival of insecls-through the winter, which in turn could lead to greater pest pressure earlier in the grow ing season, Patterson said.
