Date of creation:

15.11.2004.

Scale:

1:20,000,000.

Accuracy of map:

Map was created using information from state publications and maps of natural scale 1:17,000,000-1:80,000,000.

Projection:

"Alber's Equal Area Conic for the USSR", 9, 1001, 7, 100, 0, 44, 68, 0, 0.

Basic contents:

Vector map. Main distribution area is shown by a polygon, while sporadic distribution is shown by points. Zone of weediness is shown by a polygon.

Accuracy of classifier:

Distribution of the species is divided into zones of main distribution, moderate weediness, and sporadic distribution. Zone of weediness was allocated according to criteria of occurrence (% of fields where this species is found) and abundance (expressed as projective cover of this species in the field) (Tanskii et al., 1998), i.e., where the occurrence of this species exceeds 50% with an abundance (projective cover) of more than 15%.

Mapping procedure:

Distribution area and zone of weediness was mapped following an analysis of references and public cartographic materials. Maps by Chikov (1983) and Hulten & Fries (1986) were used as prototypes for compilation of the main distribution area. Sporadic distribution was mapped using Hulten & Fries (1986), Chikov (1983) and Dorogostaiskaya (1972). The zone of weediness was mapped using published data. Further research indicates that the weed is the most widespread weed in Latvia (Gurskii, 1956); a pernicious weed among some crops in the Non-Chernozen Zone (Shlyakova, 1979); the most widespread weed in the Moscow Region (Populovskaya, 1936); a main weed in the Nizhnii Novgorod Region (Tikhonova, 1937); a weed displaying low abundance but high occurrence in crops in Byelorussia (Kozlovskaya & Simonovich, 1966; Sammersov et al., 2000); a main weed in the Rostov Region (Grin.ko, 1987) and the Stavropol. Territory (Kolpikova, 1967); a weed with weediness levels reaching 80% in Crimea (Vasil.ev, 1929); a weed of mixed and deciduous forests in Transcarpathia and the Carpathians (Nikitin, 1983); one of the main weeds of tomato plantations in Dagestan (Pankova, 2000); the main weed in Western Georgia (Gaidamakin et al., 1936); a weed of crops in Buryatia (Filatov, 1983); a weed in the agricultural area of Kyrgyzstan (Sukhin et al., 1983); the most malicious weed, displaying a weediness level of 3 points, in Uzbekistan (Belolipov et al.,1990); a weed of wheat, rice, lucerne, and cotton in Tajikistan (Vasil.chenko, 1955); a weed displaying an abundance of 2 points in Azerbaijan (Doronina, 1978; Magomedi, 1982); a weed in crops of the Omsk Region (Plotnikov, 1949); and a main weed in experimental fields at the Kurgan Agricultural Institute (Kushnirenko, 1949).
