Gambel Oak Control Studies in Southwestern Colorado
Marquiss RW. 1973. Gambel Oak Control Studies in Southwestern Colorado. Journal of Range Management. 26(1):57-58
Gambel oak (_Quercus gambelii_) was treated with several brush-killing herbicides in southwestern Colorado. Tordon, alone or in a mixture, as a foliar spray increased the percentage of dead stems and reduced the occurrence of root sprouts when compared to other hervicides tested. One-half pound of Tordon 22K at the 2-pound rate have resulted in the best herbicide treatments for controlling Gambel oak in southwestern Colorado.
