Do tissue carbon and nitrogen limit population growth of weevils introduced to control waterhyacinth at a site in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, California? [PDF]
, 2004 Waterhyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes(Mart.) Solms), is a serious problem in the Sacramento Delta. Two weevil species (Neochetina bruchi Hustache and N. eichhorniae Warner) have been introduced as biological control agents. The purpose of this study was

Intercropping Alters Phytochemical Defenses Against Insect Herbivory
Abstract Given the multiple possible mechanisms for interspecific chemical interaction between adjacent heterospecific plants, phytochemical defenses of pest-susceptible crop species could potentially be enhanced or altered by intercropping with phytochemically diverse neighbors.

Eurasian watermilfoil biomass associated with insect herbivores in New York [PDF]
, 2000 A study of aquatic plant biomass within Cayuga Lake, New York spans twelve years from 1987-1998. The exotic Eurasian watermilfoil ( Myriophyllum spicatum L.) decreased in the northwest end of the lake from 55% of the total biomass in 1987 to 0.4 ...
