Japanese knotweed increases soil erosion on riverbanks

River Research and Applications, 2021
AbstractFor years, Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) has been suspected of accelerating riverbank erosion, despite a lack of convincing evidence. The stems of this invasive plant die back following the first autumn frosts, leaving the soil unprotected during winter and spring floods.

The impact of Japanese knotweed on stream baseflow

Ecohydrology, 2013
ABSTRACTThe impact of invasive plants on stream baseflow has mostly focused on water‐limited areas such as South Africa and the southwestern region of the United States. However, there is evidence suggesting that rivers in areas traditionally considered to be water‐rich (e.g.

Japanese Knotweed

Japanese Knotweed Reynoutria japonica is one of the world’s most high-profile invasive plants. This authoritative and accessible book traces the species’ global history, distribution and reproductive biology. The authors deliver a comprehensive overview of ecological and economic threats posed by knotweed and how these have influenced government policy

Japanese knotweed, journalism and the general public

EPPO Bulletin, 2014
In the course of developing and delivering a management programme for Japanese knotweed (Fallopia japonica) the team involved had extensive interactions with the general public and journalists, both print and broadcast. The programme was unique in that the communication goal was not only getting across the message that the plant is a pest that needs ...

Invasive Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica Houtt.) and related knotweeds as catalysts for streambank erosion

River Research and Applications, 2020
AbstractJapanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) and the other invasive knotweeds, collectively known as knotweed s.l., are significant invasives worldwide, especially of riparian areas. While R. japonica and other knotweed s.l. can reproduce sexually, their dispersal to and spread within new regions is often accomplished through vegetative reproduction

Fallopia japonica (Japanese Knotweed) in Japan: Why Is It Not a Pest for Japanese People?

2016
Fallopia japonica is native to Japan, Taiwan and Korea. It is now widely naturalized in Europe and North America, and is regarded as one of the worst invasive alien species. For Japanese people, F. japonica has been one of the most familiar and useful wild plants for centuries. It is rare to regard the plant as a harmful weed in Japan.

Japanese knotweed - invasive alien species in Croatia

Glasilo biljne zaštite, 2010
Japanski pridvornik (Reynoutria japonica Houtt.) je pripadnik biljne porodice dvornjača (Polygonaceae). Uz navedeno znanstveno ime sinonimi su mu Polygonum cuspidatum i Fallopia japonica. Potječe iz Azije. Zeljasta je trajnica. Ima šuplju uspravnu stabljiku, često crvenkasta ili s crvenim točkastim mrljama. Raste u visinu od 1 do 5 metara.

EPIGENETICS OF COLONIZING SPECIES? A STUDY OF JAPANESE KNOTWEED IN CENTRAL EUROPE

2016
Some of the world's most successful invasive plants have spread across large geographic areas while retaining little or no genetic diversity. Because of this lack of heritable variation evolutionary hypotheses are usually not invoked when attempting to explain the success of these species.

The Ecological Genomic Processes of the Iconic Japanese Knotweed Invasion

Many plant invasions establish from only a few individuals and exhibit clonal spread, providing an opportunity to examine the genomic mechanisms that underlie the success of particularly aggressive individuals. One of the world’s most invasive species, the Japanese knotweed complex, is well suited for such investigations.
