Resumen

Pennisetum setaceum (Forssk.) Chiov., 1923 is an exotic grass from the Arabian Peninsula that has been very successful as an ornamental plant worldwide in recent years. Unfortunately, it has proved to be a very competitive invader, causing ecological problems in several regions of the world. We don't know exactly how this species interacts with native weeds in Mexico. Our study aims to show the interactions of Pennisetum with three species of native weeds in the surroundings of the metropolitan area of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico: Aeschynomene villosa var. longifolia (Micheli) Rudd, Desmodium aparines (Link) DC. and Paspalum notatum (Flüggé). The seeds of Pennisetum were tested in monospecific groups (competing against itself) and in association with each of the native species mentioned and with a treatment together with all the compound of the species mentioned, thus simulating what could happen in natural conditions upon the arrival of the seeds of P. setaceum in a degraded soil of Guadalajara. The results show how the biomass produced and the speed of growth of Pennisetum can be a real alarm for the conservation of local germplasm.

Bertolini was born on 29 June 1975 in Palermo, Italy. From a very young age he developed a passion for the plant kingdom. He obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Agronomy from the University of his home town in 2001, before moving to Mexico to complete a Master's Degree at the Postgraduate College, graduating in 2005. In 2009, he obtained a Doctorate in Environmental Agronomy from the University of Palermo and returned to Mexico, where in 2010 he began a post-doctorate at El Colegio de la Frontera Sur, Tapachula Unit-Mexico, where he currently works as a researcher interested in the conservation of native orchids of Soconusco. He is a member of the National System of CONACYT Researchers, Level I.

 

Oscar Alejandro Sedano Ibarra , Centro Universitario de Ciencias Biológicas y Agropecuarias, Universidad de Guadalajara, Jalisco

Born on 6 September 1991 in Jalisco, Mexico. Passionate about biology. He graduated in Biology from the University of Guadalajara-Mexico in 2019. It was during his undergraduate studies that he discovered his passion for ecology, especially ecological restoration. He did restoration work in Bosque la Primavera, a protected area in his city. He then went on to do a Masters in Seed Technology at the Department of Agricultural Production, which he will complete in 2022 at the same university in his home town. As part of his research, he carried out studies on the native species of the La Primavera forest and their importance in recovering degraded land for ecological restoration projects, as well as promoting the care and importance of these species in the environment.
