Negative effect of purple loosestrife and reed canary grass on the diversity of wetland plant and moth communities

Creator:

Schooler, Shon

Abstract:

Invasive plants have the potential to reduce the diversity of species in plant and animal communities. I examined the negative effect of two invasive wetland plants, purple loosestrife and reed canary grass, on the species richness and diversity of plant and moth communities within 24 wetland study sites in the...

Ecology and biological control of an apomictic invasive plant, Chondrilla juncea (Asteraceae)

Creator:

Campanella, Donald M.

Abstract:

A study consisting of three parts was undertaken to investigate how variation in species interactions, population genetic structure, epidemiological parameters, and plant breeding system may influence the ecology and biological control of an apomictic invasive plant, Chondrilla juncea (Asteraceae). Interactions between natural enemy species may modify their net effect on...
