Haw.; Fabaceae], an invasive plant which was having a dramatic impact on livelihoods. However, a number of other exotic plants, which were less widespread, but had the potential of becoming invasive, were not seen as a potential problem. In order to avoid a similar situation from arising in the future, the community expressed a need for a Field Guide, which would include descriptions of naturalized and invasive species already present in, and those that were most likely to invade Laikipia County and, information on how best to manage them. An additional impetus was to contribute to the four main objectives of the National Strategy and Action Plan for the Management of Invasive Species in Kenya's Protected Areas. The Field Guide contributes in some or other way to all of these objectives which are to (i) Enhance awareness of invasive species to relevant actors; (ii) Prevent new invasions, manage established invasions and rehabilitate degraded habitats; (iii) Enhance research, monitoring and information management on invasive species; and (iv) Enhance capacity, resource mobilization and coordination. Extensive surveys revealed the presence of a number of introduced plant species which had escaped cultivation and established populations in the 'wild' to the detriment of natural resources and the people that depend on them. Introduced succulents, especially those in the genus Opuntia (Cactaceae), were found to be the most widespread and abundant invasive species in the semi-arid regions in the north and east of Laikipia County. Other succulents, those in the genus Bryophyllum (Crassulaceae), were also found to have escaped cultivation and were locally abundant. In the higher rainfall areas to the west and southwest, introduced trees such as black wattle (Acacia mearnsii De Wild.; Fabaceae) and Australian blackwood (Acacia melanoxylon R. Br.; Fabaceae) and the shrubs/climbers, Mauritius thorn [Caesalpinia decapetala (Roth) Alston; Fabaceae] and yellow cestrum (Cestrum aurantiacum Lindl.; Solanaceae), were invasive. Introduced plants, which have the potential to become problematic in Laikipia, unless eradicated or controlled, have also been included in the Guide. This includes species such as famine weed (Parthenium hysterophorus L.; Asteraceae) and 'mathenge' [Prosopis juliflora (Sw.) DC.; Fabaceae], which are already abundant in areas adjoining the County. 606 $aInvasive plants 606 $aPlant introduction 606 $aWeeds 615 0$aInvasive plants. 615 0$aPlant introduction. 615 0$aWeeds. 676 $a333.9533 700 $aWitt$b Anne$0985343 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910318333203321 996 $aGuide to the naturalized and invasive plants of Laikipia$92252091 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04041nam 2200673Ia 450 001 9910785865503321 005 20230422031456.0 010 $a3-11-093995-9 024 7 $a10.1515/9783110939958 035 $a(CKB)2670000000249974 035 $a(EBL)936455 035 $a(OCoLC)843635433 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000560137 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11383699 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000560137 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10571297 035 $a(PQKB)11424326 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC936455 035 $a(DE-B1597)45527 035 $a(OCoLC)979607291 035 $a(DE-B1597)9783110939958 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL936455 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10591833 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000249974 100 $a19991127d1999 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#---|u||u 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aProblems of editing$b[electronic resource] /$fedited by Christa Jansohn 205 $aReprint 2011 210 $aTu?bingen $cNiemeyer$d1999 215 $a1 online resource (260 p.) 225 0 $aBeihefte zu Editio ;$vBd. 14 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 0 $a3-484-29514-7 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $tFront matter --$tNegotiating Conflicting Aims in Scholarly Editing: The Problem of Editorial Intentions /$rShillingsburg, Peter L. --$tEditorial Theory and Practice in English Studies in Germany /$rMehl, Dieter --$tTeaching Editing - Learning Editing /$rPlachta, Bodo --$tPublishing Scholarly Editions of 19th and 20th Century Novels /$rBrown, Andrew --$tGeneral-Editing and Theory: Historical Version and Authorial Agency /$rEggert, Paul --$tGenetic Texts - Genetic Editions - Genetic Criticism or, Towards Discoursing the Genetics of Writing /$rGabler, Hans Walter --$tLinguistic Problems of Editing /$rGörlach, Manfred --$tThe Editing of Old English: To Emend or not to Emend /$rCaie, Graham D. --$tWhere are the Bibliographers of Yesteryear? /$rHill, W.
