PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for growing monocotyledonous myrmecochory plants by which favorable and easy growth of the monocotyledonous myrmecochory plants from seeds can be attained even in an area allowing competing weeds and/or ants to appear: and to provide a weed-control mat for growing monocotyledonous myrmecochory plants used in the method.SOLUTION: The method for growing monocotyledonous myrmecochory plants includes placing seeds 1a of monocotyledonous myrmecochory plants on the ground G. The seeds 1a are covered over with nonwoven fabric 3 allowing the germs of the monocotyledonous myrmecochory plants to pass through, so as to suppress the germs of plants whose average value of the leaf width is larger than that of the monocotyledonous myrmecochory plants from passing through the nonwoven fabric 3 and to suppress the seeds 1a from being moved by ants.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】競合雑草や蟻が出現し得るエリアであっても、単子葉蟻散布植物の種子からの良好かつ容易な育成を実現することのできる単子葉蟻散布植物の育成方法およびこの方法に用いる単子葉蟻散布植物育成用雑草防除マットを提供すること。【解決手段】地面Gに単子葉蟻散布植物の種子1aを配置する単子葉蟻散布植物の育成方法であって、単子葉蟻散布植物の通芽を許容する不織布3によって種子1aを上方から覆った状態とすることにより、不織布3に対する単子葉蟻散布植物よりも葉幅の平均値の大きい植物の通芽と、蟻による種子1aの移動とを抑制する。【選択図】図2
