Officials concerned: ‘Noxious’ invasive weed found in Cayuga Lake near Aurora
NewYorkUpstate.com
Aurora, NY.– Hydrilla, a potentially harmful invasive water plant, has been discovered in Cayuga Lake near Wells College.
Management of Hydrilla Dependant on Biotype, Experts Say
Homeowners, boaters, fisherman, and other recreational users deal with a familiar looking problem weed in water bodies from Florida to Maine. A resident on a lake in New York State would likely call the whirled leafed invader the same as a farmer in the bayou. Hydrilla, a nasty invader throughout many water bodies of the United States may look similar across state lines, but researchers with the Aquatic Ecosystem Research Facility in Lewisville, TX show just how different the plant, and it’s subsequent management can be from one state to the next.

An inch per day? Scientists’ investigation sheds light on invasive submersed plant growth potential
We’ve all heard horror stories of invasive submersed aquatic plants expeditiously expanding across a water body in what seems like a matter of days. Many of us have likely even seen this with our own eyes. Two of the most well known invaders for their seemingly prolific expansion are Hydrilla and Eurasian watermilfoil (EWM). (more…)

Hydrilla: Fast-growing weed threatens to choke Lake Waccamaw

LAKE WACCAMAW – Nobody knew what it was at first, just an incredibly fast-spreading aquatic weed near the public boat ramp on Lake Waccamaw. Rob Emens visited the boat ramp in October and immediately knew that the plant fragments he saw floating in the water could be only one thing: the dreaded hydrilla.

Area lakes could be threatened by noxious weeds
An effort was announced this week to encourage all lake residents and boaters to be on the lookout for an invasive, non-native aquatic weed that is a Godzilla among noxious aquatic weeds.Meet Hydrilla verticillata, water thyme, fast growing (an inch a day), and able to grow in a few inches of water or in 20 feet of water.
