Also a rebutal to that article, by two seemingly well educated guys.

Brian A. Mealor

Assistant Professor
Extension Weed Specialist

Department of Plant Sciences
University of Wyoming
College of Agriculture Room 1010

Education
B.S. – Biology 1999. North Georgia College and State University
M.S. – Rangeland Ecology and Watershed Management 2003. University of Wyoming
Ph.D. – Rangeland Ecology and Watershed Management 2006. University of Wyoming
My extension, research and teaching program focuses on: 1) investigating long-term impacts of non-native invasive weeds on native plant communities, 2) developing and improving management strategies to reduce the ecological and economic impacts of invasive weeds, and 3) understanding the inherent resilience of native populations to biological invasion. My work is done primarily in extensively-managed rangelands of the western United States.

Andrew R. Kniss
Assistant Professor, Weed Biology & Ecology

Education:
2006 Ph.D. Agronomy (Minor: Statistics) – University of Wyoming
2003 M.S. Agronomy – University of Nebraska – Lincoln
2001 B.S. Agroecology – University of Wyoming

Research:
My research program focuses on developing sustainable weed management programs in agronomic crops, especially sugarbeet, winter wheat, corn, and dry beans. Recent research projects include:

shade avoidance responses in sugarbeet
long-term management of jointed goatgrass in imidazolinone-resistant (Clearfield) winter wheat
synergistic herbicide combinations for management of feral rye
new herbicide options in proso millet
effect of long-term glyphosate use in glyphosate-resistant (Roundup Ready) cropping systems
use of ethofumesate in glyphosate-resistant (Roundup Ready) sugarbeet
management of volunteer corn in dry beans and sugarbeet
economics and eco-efficiency of conventional and glyphosate-resistant (Roundup Ready) sugarbeet production systems
statistical modeling of herbicide absorption into plants

Going to a movie, will read this all later.
