Book Description
The use of herbicides coordinated with insect-feeding damage as a method for alligator weed management is discussed. Detailed studies on the integrated control method include the details of the research program relating to an integrated approach, the effects of water quality on the distribution of alligator weed and water hyacinth, the effects of water hardness on herbicide toxicity, and the evaluation of promising herbicides for the control of alligator weed and water lettuce. Color illustrations reproduced in black and white.

Book Description
Under a research contract all of the major lakes and rivers of Florida have been surveyed for diseases of water hyacinths (Eichhornia crassipes), alligator weed (Alternanthera philoxeroides), Eurasian water milfoil (Myriophyllum spicatum), and hydrilla (Hydrilla verticillata). Also included in these surveys were various locales in Georgia, Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, Tennessee, and the Chesapeake Bay area of Maryland. Overseas surveys have included Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Trinidad, El Salvador, Guatemala, Panama, Argentina, and India. Over 200 fungi and bacteria have been isolated from waterweeds. The most virulent pathogen of water hyacinths collected thus far is an isolate of Rhizoctonia solani from the Rio Chagres of Panama (Canal Zone). This fungus is lethal to water hyacinths as well as to inoculated plants of alligator weed, water lettuce, and pennywort (Hydrocotyl sp.). Another fungus, Cephalosporium zonatum, induces striking zonate lesions on the foliage of inoculated plants, and it is being studied as an integrated control agent.
