1:20,000,000.Accuracy of map:
Map was created using information from published literature and maps of the following natural scale: 1:80,000,000-1:5,000,000.Projection:
"Alber's Equal Area Conic for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.Basic contents:
Vector map. Areas of species distribution are indicated by polygons, while sporadic distribution is marked by points. Zones of weediness are indicated by polygons.Accuracy of classifier:
The weed area is subdivided into two zones, one representing species distribution, and the second where the weed is considered a serious pest. Points represent locations where sporadic occurrence has been reported. The zone of weediness was defined according to criteria of occurrence (% of fields where this species is found) and abundance (Tanskii et al., 1998), i.e., where the occurrence of this species exceeded 50% with a field abundance (projective cover) of more than 15%.Method of map production:
Published literature was reviewed, including atlases, monographs and papers. Occurrence data were obtained from herbarium specimens, floras, monographs and papers. Data were then compiled through scanning and geo-referencing to develop a composite vector map. The biologist, together with the GIS specialist, drew a composite weed distribution area based on compiled data. The distribution area and zone of weediness were outlined on a blank map based on an analysis of references and cartographic materials. The Wormwood area of distribution described by Hulten & Fries (1986) was used as a prototype. It was expanded northeastward based on Tolmachev (1962, 1977) and Hulten & Fries (1986). In Siberia, two isolated sites were combined based on Krylov (1949), V.L. Komarov Botanical Institute and Hulten & Fries (1986), as well as the map of arable lands (Koroljeva et al., 2003). In Central Asia and in the Far East, the areas of distribution were based on the following literature data on the harmfulness of the weed there: Andreev & Moiseenko (1981), Begimkulov (1990), Vasil.chenko (1953, 1975), and Sukhin et al. (1983). Sporadic distribution was identified based on the following sources: Hulten & Fries (1986), Dorogostayskaya (1972), Poyarkova (1966), Krasnoborov (1997), and Harkevich (1992). The zone of weediness was determined using literature data as well as the map of arable lands. The criterion used to determine the weediness area is as follows: A noxious weed in the Rostov and Kemerovo Regions and in the Non-Chernozem zone was identified according to Grin.ko et al. (1987), Kuminova (1958), and Shlyakova (1979); an ineradicable weed in the Leningrad Region according to Agaev (1988); an abundance of 3 points in the Non-Chernozem zone according to Shlyakova (1982); a malicious weed among grain crops in Byelorussia according to Samersov et al. (2000); an abundance of up to 75% in Gomel and Brest Regions according to Kim & Rykovskii (1966); the most widespread weed in the Ukraine according to Mel.nichuk & Kovalivs.ka (1972); the main weed in gardens of the Donetsk Region according to Skorokhod (1951); the most noxious weed in the Saratov Region according to Orlova (1962); the main species in the Nizhnii Novgorod Region, Bashkiria, Western and Eastern Siberia according to Tikhonova (1937), Dmitriev (1937), Krylov (1949) and Nikitin (1983); the main weed in the Ryazan Region, Eastern Siberia, Dagestan, the Far East and in all areas of irrigated agriculture according to Spiridonov & Polyanskii (2004), Belykh (1974), Pogorel.skii (1955), Ul.yanova (1998) and Vasil.chenko (1975); an occurrence of up to 100% in Novosibirsk and Tomsk Regions according to Zvereva (1936); a widespread weed among crops in the Kirov Region, Tajikistan and Kirghizia according to Shabalina (1975), Vasil.chenko (1955), and Sukhin et al. (1983); an abundance of up to 68% in Southern Kazakhstan according to Kornilova (1957); an abundance of 2-3 points in the Toshkent Region according to Begimkulov (1990); the most dangerous weed and main species in the Far East according to Sal.nikova & Zakharkin (1953)and Zakharenko (2004); and a frequently occurring plant among crops of tilled cultures in the Primorskii Territory according to Andreev & Moiseenko (1981).Reference citations:
