Abstract

To evaluate the climatic impacts and future climatic changes on geographical distribution of the Dodartia (Dodartia orientalisas L.), an invasive weed species in the world and Iran, a study was conducted in Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, using CLIMEX software, in 2016. The input data for the software included two group of data i.e. growth and stresses parameters through which some useful findings such as growth degree day were obtained based on the field study and other data such as base, optimum and ceiling temperatures as well as some information related to the regional climate of the study were acquired from the previous studis and the output analysis of the software. The results revealed that the distribution of the weed in Iran was observed mostly in North, Razavi, and South Khorasan, Kohkiloyeh, Chaharmahal, Fars, Lorestan, Ilam, Kermanshah, Hamedan, Markazi and Tehran provinces which will be highly expanded towards the northern west country provinces as a result of the occurrence of climatic changes. The plant species has a distribution potential in the world towards east china, most east European countries and central states of USA. So that the regions rely in the geographical position of 35 to 55 latitude, which gradually will extend towards the higher northern latitude that leads to limited continental spread of the plant to Africa, Australia and South America. Therefore, to manage this weed, while taking steps towards its quarantine, further studies on the control methods and tools to restrict its establishment, development and expansion should be conducted in vulnerable countries at risk.
