Evidence in on the impact of gamba grass

Concerns about the potential environmental impacts of gamba grass (Andropogon gayanus) were first raised in the early 1990s. However, the push for effective and coordinated control strategies were hampered by the lack of published scientific information about its biology and environmental impacts1. In response to this knowledge gap, Drs Samantha Setterfield and Michael Douglas from Charles Darwin University have led several research projects over the last decade—investigating both gamba’s biology and evaluating its impact on ecosystem invasion.
