Kudzu (Pueraria montana) community responses to herbicides, burning, and high-density loblolly pine
Open accessAbstract
Kudzu is an aggressive, nonnative vine that currently dominates an estimated 810,000 ha of mesic forest communities in the eastern United States. To test an integrated method of weed control, abundances of kudzu and other plant species were compared during 4 yr after six herbicide treatments (clopyralid, triclopyr, metsulfuron, picloram + 2,4-D, tebuthiuron, and a nonsprayed check), in which loblolly pines were planted at three densities (0, 1, and 4 seedlings m−2) to induce competition and potentially delay kudzu recovery. This split-plot design was replicated on each of the four kudzu-dominated sites near Aiken, SC. Relative light intensity (RLI) and soil water content (SWC) were measured periodically to identify mechanisms of interference among plant species. Two years after treatment (1999), crown coverage of kudzu averaged < 2% in herbicide plots compared with 93% in the nonsprayed check, and these differences were maintained through 2001, except in clopyralid plots where kudzu cover increased to 15%. In 2001, pine interference was associated with 33, 56, and 67% reductions in biomass of kudzu, blackberry, and herbaceous vegetation, respectively. RLI in kudzu-dominated plots (4 to 15% of full sun) generally was less than half that of herbicide-treated plots. SWC was greatest in tebuthiuron plots, where total vegetation cover averaged 26% compared with 77 to 111% in other plots. None of the treatments eradicated kudzu, but combinations of herbicides and induced pine competition delayed its recovery.
Overview
AI snapshot
Written from the paper’s full text.
TL;DR
Repeated herbicide treatments plus burning and high-density loblolly pine plantings reduced kudzu cover and biomass but did not eradicate it over 4 yr. Induced pine competition delayed kudzu recovery, with pine density from 0 to 4 seedlings m−2 associated with a 33% reduction in kudzu biomass by 2001.
Key findings
- In 1999, two years after initial treatment, kudzu crown cover averaged <2% in herbicide plots vs. 93% in the nonsprayed check; differences were maintained through 2001 except in clopyralid plots, where kudzu cover increased to 15%.
- In 2001, increasing loblolly pine density from 0 to 4 seedlings m−2 was associated with 33, 56, and 67% reductions in biomass of kudzu, blackberry, and herbaceous vegetation, respectively.
- Relative light intensity in kudzu-dominated plots was 4 to 15% of full sun, generally less than half that of herbicide-treated plots; soil water content was greatest in tebuthiuron plots, where total vegetation cover averaged 26% vs. 77 to 111% in other plots.
- None of the treatments eradicated kudzu; traces remained in 2001 (1 to 2% cover in triclopyr, metsulfuron, picloram, and tebuthiuron plots), and pine survival at study end was 8 to 9% in nonsprayed and tebuthiuron plots vs. 72 to 76% in other herbicide plots.
Methods
- Split-plot randomized complete block replicated at four kudzu-dominated sites near Aiken, SC, on the Savannah River Site; six herbicide whole plots (clopyralid, triclopyr, metsulfuron, picloram + 2,4-D, tebuthiuron, and nonsprayed check) and three pine densities (0, 1, and 4 seedlings m−2) as split plots.
- Herbicides were applied in July 1997, June 1998, and June 1999; sites were broadcast burned in December 1997; loblolly pines were planted in January 1998; paraquat was applied monthly to 1-m perimeter strips.
- Vegetation cover was estimated visually at 216 points, biomass was clipped and dried, relative light intensity was measured with a PAR ceptometer, soil water content was measured by time domain reflectometry, and data were analyzed with split-plot ANOVA plus linear regression for biomass/LAI predictions.
Limitations
- Stated: the study provided only a limited opportunity to test pine density effects on kudzu recovery because only the clopyralid treatment had significant kudzu cover growing in association with a dense loblolly pine canopy; the authors also note that traces remained and eventual kudzu recovery is likely.
- Evident: the experiment lasted 4 yr at four sites in one region, no treatment eradicated kudzu, and the 2001 pine-density effect on kudzu cover was not statistically significant (P = 0.123).

“Because of the rapid elongation of its twining vines (up to 30 cm per day and 18 m per year) and the ability to overtop and kill other plant species (Everest et al. 1991), kudzu is considered one of the most invasive weed species in the United States, with an estimated coverage of 810,000 ha (C orley et al. 1997).”

“In this study, disturbance characteristics of the treatments (e.g., effects of burning and differences in herbicide selectivity and persistence) and subsequent interference among dominant species resulted in the development of four distinctly different plant communities, including those dominated by kudzu (nonsprayed plots), blackberry (clopyralid plots), and forbs (triclopyr, metsulfuron, or picl”

Kudzu can recover from small residual traces (1-2% cover) remaining after herbicide treatment.
“Despite the high degree of kudzu control provided by repeated herbicide treatments, traces of the vine were present in the most effective treatments at study termination (1 to 2% cover in the triclopyr, metsulfuron, picloram, and tebuthiuron treatments in 2001), and eventual recovery of the species is therefore likely, especially near the nonsprayed check and perimeter of each study site.”
The paper relies on this without support.
The granular formulation of tebuthiuron is slower to be absorbed in the soil and taken up by the plant than the foliar-applied formulations of the other herbicides.
“First-year control of kudzu by tebuthiuron was probably limited because the granular formulation was slower to be absorbed in the soil and taken up by the plant than the foliar-applied formulations of the other herbicides.”

Claimed 2000 forb-cover difference is not significant
MinorThe discussion presents greater forb cover in tebuthiuron than clopyralid plots at four pines per square meter as a treatment difference in 2000 and 2001. In the August 2000 row of Table 4, those means are 14 and 2, but both have the letter "a," which the table defines as no significant difference.
“(3) greater forb cover in tebuthiuron plots than in clopyralid plots at a pine density of four seedlings m Ϫ2”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-20, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-20 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
