Impact of campaigns to control common ragweed on the pollen production in France
National audience; The dispersion of common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) is anthropogenic, and because it is an invasive plant, a number of control procedures have been implemented whose effectiveness was measured. Measures on pollen emissions were compared between areas with different level of management. In addition to pollen traps of the French aerobiology network (RNSA), passive traps (SLT: SIGMA2 Like Trap) were positioned near controlled or non-controlled areas. Two areas were selected: - infested areas, in Rhône-Valley, 12 SLT were set up: 8 in Estrablin, with 2 in non-controlled areas and 6 in well-controlled areas; 4 near Valence, with one in non-controlled area and 3 in we…
Mesure de l’efficacité de la lutte contre l’ambroisie : étude de faisabilité
Common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) is known for its high allergenic pollens and by the difficulty to control this invasive plant which make it a problem for public health and is a harmfulness in rural areas. This first work aims to make a feasibility study to verify the proper functioning of selected traps and the correct implementation of specific procedures. It was decided to use passive traps SIGMA2 (SIGMA2 Like Trap ou SLT). Two geographical areas were selected, each with 4 traps: an infested area in Isère and a slightly infested area in Côte d'Or. SLT traps used can well collect pollen from local areas, the collected quantities vary in a corresponding manner according to the d…
