it does not attack grasses or cereals the dodder species have nttraetcd much atten tion lately because they have shown every indication that they may become serious pests if given any chance to spread says w h wright chief seed analyst plant products division domlrfon de partment of agriculture the twining stems of dodder are orange to orangeyellow in color which makes them fairly easy to locate in a field once located the plant should be destroyed at once and the find reported to the near est weed insgpctor or office of the plant products divlsior although it is not too difficult to locate the mature plant when n dodder seed germinates it is very thin and thronduke and hard to find in a field if the seedling is not close enough to a host plant a plant to which it can cllrg and from which it can draw nourlah- m it will soon die but if a host plant u close enough the threadlike seedling will soon twist itself around the plants stem when this happens the dodder los es its connectlor with the ground and produces little suckerlike structures which penetrate the outer walls of the host into the tissue which carries the sap it is on the sap that the dodder lives once dodder plants become es tablished they grow very rapidly spreading from plant to plant one dodder seed will produce a plant which will cover quite a large area often two or three yards or more charles v hlllmer mayor of
