Impacts of Hydrilla Environmental Outcompetes native species by forming dense mats of vegetation, which block sunlight from other aquatic plants. Grows in a wide range of environmental conditions. Reproduces quickly via tuber, turion, seed, and fragmentation. Monocultures displace fish and animals that...
Four insects of the genera Bagous and Hydrellia have been introduced into the USA by entomologists. These insects have eliminated large infestations of Hydrilla. Bagous affinis from India was released in Florida, USA, in 1987. This species was recently shown to have potential as a biological c...
introduce, import, sell or offer that species for sale as a live organism, except under certain circumstances." It's because it can affect the nitrogen levels in soil which can harm local plant life. It's also hard to kill because, even when cut to the stump, this shrub will...

In this study, we tested the role of the invasive macrophyte Hydrilla verticillata as a foraging habitat for small fish species. To achieve this goal, we assessed the feeding activity and diet composition of fish captured in patches of the invasive H. verticillata and of a similar native ...

Invasive species(Flora)SamplingMonoecious hydrillaBiotypesThis technical note describes 2013 survey results for pathogenic agents on monoecious hydrilla. There are two biotypes of Hydrilla verticillata (L.f.) Royle (hydrilla) in the United States. The pistillate dioecious hydrilla biotype was ...
Biological control is considered the best management option against the aquatic weed Hydrilla verticillata , one of the most damaging invasive plants in the United States. The search for natural enemies is ongoing. Larval flies from two families (Ephydridae and Chironomidae) were collected feeding on...
Aquatic vascular plants are a distinctive group, differing from terrestrial plants in their growth forms and habitats. Among the various aquatic plant life forms, the evolutionary processes of freshwater submerged species are most likely distinct due to
