Each year invasive plants cost Australia billions of dollars through costs associated with their control and through lost agricultural production and degradation of native ecosystems. Two particularly damaging plants are gorse and broom. The problems gorse causes are so serious that it has been recognized as a Weed of National Significance (Federal Department of Environment and Heritage). Biological control efforts have seldom use native agents, and even less often, parasitic plants. This project will help to develop strategies for the control of two noxious species using a native parsitic plant.

每年，侵入性工厂通过与其控制以及农业生产失去和降解本地生态系统相关的成本来使澳大利亚数十亿美元。两种特别有害的植物是戈尔斯和扫帚。戈尔斯的原因是如此严重，以至于它被认为是具有国家意义的杂草（联邦环境和遗产部）。生物控制努力很少使用本地药物，甚至少于寄生植物。 该项目将有助于制定策略，以控制两种有害物种，使用本地帕斯特植物。
