M.L. 2013 Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research Center Subproject Abstract For the Period Ending June 30, 2019 SUBPROJECT TITLE: MAISRC Subproject 8: Risk assessment, control, and restoration research on aquatic invasive plant species SUBPROJECT MANAGER: Daniel Larkin AFFILIATION: University of Minnesota MAILING ADDRESS: 135 Skok Hall, 2003 Upper Buford Circle CITY/STATE/ZIP: St. Paul, MN 55108 PHONE: 612-625-6350 E-MAIL: [email protected] WEBSITE: http://larkinlab.cfans.umn.edu/ FUNDING SOURCE: Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund (ENRTF) LEGAL CITATION: M.L. 2013, Chp. 52, Sec. 2, Subd. 06a SUBPROJECT BUDGET AMOUNT: $822,000 AMOUNT SPENT: $820,251 AMOUNT REMAINING: $1,748 Sound bite of Subproject Outcomes and Results This project predicted invasion risk, assessed ecological impacts, evaluated control efficacy, and investigated factors limiting post-control recovery of native aquatic plants. This was applied to starry stonewort, Eurasian watermilfoil, and curlyleaf pondweed. This will refine approaches for invasion prevention, reduce populations of established AIS, and restore native species. Overall Subproject Outcome and Results Aquatic invasive plants can lower native plant diversity, reduce habitat quality for fish and other animals, and interfere with recreation. To protect Minnesota’s water resources, steps need to be taken to prevent new invasions, control existing populations, and support recovery of native biodiversity. These efforts require sound, science-based guidance. To provide such support, we conducted research to predict invasion risk, assess ecological impacts, evaluate control efficacy, and investigate factors limiting post-control recovery of native aquatic plants. This work was applied to three target species at different stages of invasion: (1) Nitellopsis obtusa (starry stonewort), first found in Minnesota in 2015 and now known in 14 lakes; (2) Myriophyllum spicatum (Eurasian watermilfoil), found in 1987 and established in >300 lakes; and (3) Potamogeton crispus (curly-leaf pondweed), here for >100 years and in >750 lakes. -
