Aquatic Plant Control Program. Technical Report 10. Integrated Program for Alligator Weed Management.

Abstract

The use of herbicides coordinated with insect-feeding damage as a method for alligator weed management is discussed. Detailed studies on the integrated control method include the details of the research program relating to an integrated approach, the effects of water quality on the distribution of alligator weed and water hyacinth, the effects of water hardness on herbicide toxicity, and the evaluation of promising herbicides for the control of alligator weed and water lettuce. Color illustrations reproduced in black and white.
