Journal of Aquatic Plant Management. Volume 36.

Abstract

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (CE) Aquatic Plant Control Research Program (APCRP) is the Nation's only federally authorized research program directed to develop technology for the management of non-indigenous aquatic plant species. The APCRP is designed to provide effective, economical, and environmentally compatible methods for assessing and managing problem aquatic plants that interfere with the valued uses of the waterways of the United States. Research efforts are currently focused on the development of advanced management strategies and applications for the submersed aquatic plants, hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata (L.f.) Royle) and Eurasian watermilfoil (Mynophyllurn spicatum L.). The APCRP is committed to the development, transfer; and implementation of aquatic plant management technologies, and will continue to lead the Nation in the future.
