Herbicide absorption and translocation by Eurasian watermilfoil and hydrilla
Altmetrics
Abstract
Hydrilla and Eurasian watermilfoil are submersed invasive species that occur commonly across the US. These species are aggressive competitors, and form dense, monotypic stands. Dense stands of these species form mats on the surface, and impact water flow, as well as the economic and ecological value of water bodies. With the severe impact of these species, many control methods have been implemented to restore value to infested areas. The systemic herbicides fluridone, penoxsulam, and triclopyr are registered for aquatic use. While all three herbicides can be used for Eurasian watermilfoil ...
