Know your enemy: Application of ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to invasive species control.
Extreme weather and globalisation leave our climate vulnerable to invasion by alien species, which have negative impacts on the economy, biodiversity, and ecosystem services.

Assessment of Management Strategies for Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) in Nova Scotia [PDF]
Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica) is a problematic invasive species in Europe and North America that causes significant reductions in native plant diversity, increases soil erosion, leads to riverbank destruction, and can negatively affect property

Species Identity Drives Geographic Variation in Leaf Traits and Palatability to a Generalist Insect Herbivore of a Common Invader [PDF]
Introduced plants represent unique opportunities to understand how diverse phenotypic traits vary across broad geographic scales. However, clear generalizable principles about genetically based variation in key functional plant traits across geographic clines remain elusive. To address this knowledge gap, we assessed how heritable variation in knotweed

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 ...

Enhancing Japanese knotweed control and longterm habitat restoration post-treatment
Japanese knotweed (Reynoutria japonica var. japonica) is among the most problematic invasive plants worldwide due to its negative impacts on recipient ecosystems and propensity for rapid spread, eliciting substantial control costs.

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.
