Aim
An increasing number of exotic plants and their biological control agents are being introduced into new regions. Therefore, it is necessary to study their interactions and to manage the future directions of plant invasions under different scenarios of temperature rise.
Location
China.
Method
We investigated the distribution patterns of the two most prevalent invasive aquatic plants in the...
Riparian wetlands suffer serious plant invasion. Natural habitats and disturbance are two prominent environmental factors affecting the invasion process of exotic riparian invaders. In this study, a noxious invasive riparian plant, Alternanthera philoxeroides, and its native congener, Alternanthera sessilis were cultivated in three different riparian soils with different statuses of disturbance by...
In experiments under controlled growth conditions it was examined how flooding affected the responses of the invasive plant Alternanthera philoxeroides to defoliation. In drained and flooded conditions, plants were subjected to five defoliation levels: 0, 10, 50, 90% removal of leaf tissue and apex removal (90% leaf tissue plus apical bud removal). Plants were harvested weekly for five weeks. In drained...
