Curso Internacional de Identificación de Plántulas de Malas Hierbas
Presentation
The International Weed Seedling Identification course intends to provide tools for a successful weed identification in their early growth stages. In order to accomplish this objective, theory, laboratory and field sessions will be organized. Morphological characteristics will be explained in the theory sessions, focussing in the most relevant organs that are visible in seedlings (cotyledons, first true leaves, stem characteristics), while the comparison between different seedlings will be performed in the laboratory sessions. Finally, the acquired knowledge will be put in practice in the field.Overall, there will be four hours of theory sessions, four of laboratory sessions and 13 of field sessions.
For those participants, a booklet will be provided, with the information imparted in the theory sessions, as well as will a list of the species identified in the field, with a description of each of them.
