It is a plant parasite, or gall, found on cleaver (Galium aparine) and can be a potential biological control agent for false cleavers (Galium spurium), which is a noxious weed in many places. [ 1 ] References
G. aparine is often found in post-fire plant communities in the United States, likely developing from onsite seed and therefore rendering controlled burns as an ineffective means of removing G. aparine in areas where it is considered a noxious weed. [23] Geese frequently consume the plant, hence the common names "goosegrass". [24]
British NVC community OV24 (Urtica dioica - Galium aparine community) is one of the open habitat communities in the British National Vegetation Classification system.

Galium is a large genus of annual and perennial herbaceous plants in the family Rubiaceae, occurring in the temperate zones of both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Some species are informally known as bedstraw. [1] There are over 600 species of Galium, [2] with estimates of 629 [3] to 650 [4] as of 2013.

Galium spurium, the stickwilly [1] or false cleavers, is a plant species of the Rubiaceae. It is widespread across Europe, Asia, Africa and Canada, and is naturalized in Australia. [2] [3] [4] It is considered a noxious weed in many places. [5] Galium spurium is an erect or reclining herb up to 50 cm tall. Stems are square in cross-section.
