This is the first report on identification of all B-type proanthocyanidins from monomers to decamers (monomers—flavan-3-ols, dimers, trimers, tetramers, pentamers, hexamers, heptamers, octamers, nonamers, and decamers) and some of their gallates in

The ecohydrology of a Japanese knotweed invasion
<p>Polygonum cuspidatum (Japanese knotweed) is an herbaceous, clonal invasive plant that can create a monodominant stand that outcompetes native species, particularly throughout riparian zones. To better understand how this species is so successful at invading, and why particular locations in riparian settings are more at risk, we investigated a ...

Potential phytotoxic and shading effects of invasive Fallopia (Polygonaceae) taxa on the germination of dominant native species [PDF]
Two species of the genus Fallopia (F. sachalinensis, F. japonica, Polygonaceae) native to Asia, and their hybrid (F. ×bohemica), belong to the most noxious plant invaders in Europe.

The Japanese knotweed invasion viewed as a vast unintentional hybridisation experiment. [PDF]
Chromosome counts of plants grown from open-pollinated seed from Japanese knotweed around the world have revealed the presence of extensive hybridisation with both native and other introduced taxa. These hybrids fit into three categories: inter- and intraspecific hybrids involving the taxa of Fallopia section Reynoutria (giant knotweeds), hybrids ...

Chloroplast DNA variation and hybridization between invasive populations of Japanese knotweed and giant knotweed (Fallopia, Polygonaceae) [PDF]
Abstract Chloroplast inheritance and the direction of hybridization have been investigated in some invasive weeds from the genus Fallopia . PCR RFLP analysis of the trn K intron has been used to identify markers that distinguish between the chloroplast genomes of British samples of F. japonica var. japonica , F. japonica var.

Sources and modes of action of invasive knotweed allelopathy : the effects of leaf litter and trained soil on the germination and growth of native plants [PDF]
Invasive knotweeds, native to Eastern Asia, are among the most dominant plant invaders of European and North American temperate ecosystems. Recent studies indicate that one cause of this dominance might be allelopathy, but the possible sources and modes ...

Improving the management of Japanese knotweed s.l.: a response to Jones and colleagues [PDF]
In a recent paper, Jones et al. (2020a) claimed that we recommended the use of mowing for the “landscape management of invasive knotweeds” in an article we published earlier this year (i.e. Martin et al.

The Potential Use of Organically Grown Dye Plants in the Organic Textile Industry: Experiences and Results on Cultivation and Yields of Dyers Chamomile (Anthemis tinctoria L.), Dyers Knotweed (Polygonum tinctorium Ait.) and Weld (Reseda luteola L.) [PDF]
The organic cultivation of dye plants for the certified natural textiles industry is an emerging and promising sector of organic farming. In 1999 a field trial was done with different provenances of Dyer’s Chamomile (Anthemis tinctoria L.), Dyer’s ...
