Synthèse Bibliographique – LAMBERT E Préface : De l’utilité de connaître l’actualité en matière de plantes invasives C’est un honneur et un plaisir de préfacer la liste bibliographique actualisée sur les plantes invasives aquatiques et palustres, travail patiemment et rigoureusement mené depuis plusieurs années par le Docteur Elisabeth LAMBERT, dans le cadre du Comité des Pays de la Loire pour la gestion des plantes exotiques envahissantes. Précisons d’emblée qu’une espèce est dite invasive lorsque, s'étant établie et se reproduisant naturellement (ou se multipliant) dans un domaine géographique dont elle n’est pas originaire, elle devient envahissante et constitue alors un agent de perturbation des fonctions et usages des écosystèmes et nuit alors à la diversité biologique. Les invasions biologiques constituent un problème croissant, préoccupant et très dispendieux en finances publiques (Mineau, 2007), désormais reconnu comme l’un des dysfonctionnements écologiques majeurs de notre planète, probablement en relation avec les changements climatiques, affectant de façon très grave la biodiversité : les invasions biologiques sont parfois considérées comme la seconde cause de disparition des espèces, après la disparition et la fragmentation de leurs habitats. L’objectif de ce travail était de faire un état des lieux des différentes sources d’information sur les plantes invasives en milieux aquatiques et humides, sur les différents aspects de leur biologie et de leur écologie, mais aussi sur les effets écologiques des invasions et sur certaines caractéristiques de leur gestion. Ce travail vient en complément du Guide technique sur la gestion des plantes exotiques envahissantes (Matrat et al ., 2006), document majeur du Comité des Pays de la Loire pour la gestion des plantes exotiques envahissantes. L’organisation du document est détaillée dans l’introduction, qui met en évidence l’ampleur du travail réalisé. On peut espérer qu’il sera suivi d’autres ouvrages d’actualisation et que la veille documentaire initiée pourra être poursuivie. La richesse et la nouveauté de ce document correspondent à la diversité des sources documentaires consultées, mettant en exergue à la fois le foisonnement des informations, une relative redondance entre les documents produits et donc la nécessité de structurer les efforts de recherche et de communication des expériences acquises par les gestionnaires, mais aussi des avancées scientifiques récentes sur la biologie et l’écologie des espèces. Il reste donc important d’engager une recherche concertée sur la biologie des espèces introduites et leurs liens avec les écosystèmes d’accueil afin d’en mesurer précisément les impacts qu’elles y provoquent, grâce à des collaborations entre les gestionnaires et les scientifiques. Seule cette continuité des savoirs et des expériences permettra d’élaborer des solutions de gestion adéquates. Puissent les lecteurs tant spécialistes, gestionnaires, politiques ou simples curieux découvrir de nouvelles pistes, et utiliser ce compendium pour faire face aux menaces actuelles sur la biodiversité et l’avenir même de notre planète.

Introduction Vous trouverez ci-après une bibliographie qui sans être exhaustive, permet d’avoir un bon aperçu des travaux en cours, relatifs aux espèces végétales envahissantes. L’ensemble est découpé en 12 fiches qui sont chacune structurées selon les rubriques suivantes : Articles Brochures, plaquettes, dossiers de presse, notules (de nombreuses plaquettes sont recensées via les sites internet) Colloques, séminaires, actes de congrès, journées d’études Ouvrages ou chapitres, fascicules, guides Rapports, études, notes techniques Rapports de stagiaires, thèses, mémoires d’étudiants Textes de droit Sites internet (consultation revue et complétée, fin novembre 2009) Articles anglais ou autre langue. Les 2 premières fiches concernent les espèces exotiques envahissantes en général. Fiche 1 : Espèces exotiques envahissantes en général Fiche 2 : Espèces exotiques envahissantes en général, quelques documents anglais ou autres langues La première comprend les documents français, la seconde, les textes en anglais ou autres langues. La séparation en 2 fiches tient au fait que les textes en anglais étaient suffisamment nombreux pour qu’il soit nécessaire de les classer en fonction des rubriques ci-dessus. Les fiches 3 à 11 sont centrées sur certaines espèces : Fiche 3 : L’Ambroisie à feuilles d’armoise ( Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) Fiche 4 : Le Baccharis ( Baccharis halimifolia L.) Fiche 5 : L’Elodée dense ( Egeria densa Planch.) Fiche 6 : Les Elodées ( Elodea spp.) Fiche 7 : L’Hydrocotyle fausse renoncule (Hydrocotyle ranunculoides L.f.) Fiche 8 : Les Jussies ( Ludwigia spp.) Fiche 9 : Le Lagarosiphon ( Lagarosiphon major (Ridley) Moss) Fiche 10 : Le Myriophylle du Brésil ( Myriophyllum aquaticum (Vell.) Verdc.) Fiche 11 : Les Renouées ( Fallopia spp.) Enfin, la fiche 12 correspond aux documents regroupant plusieurs espèces exotiques, dont certaines mentionnées précédemment. Fiche 12 : Plusieurs noms d’espèces exotiques envahissantes dans un même titre de document Afin d’éviter les redondances sur les différentes fiches, il est mentionné sur chaque fiche spécifique (3 à 11) de se reporter aussi aux fiches 1 – 2 et 12 afin d’avoir l’ensemble des données pouvant correspondre à une espèce. Mes remerciements vont à toutes les personnes qui, soit du Comité des Pays de la Loire/ Gestion des plantes exotiques envahissantes, soit du GIS « Macrophytes des eaux continentales », ont pris le temps de me transmettre les références bibliographiques dont ils pouvaient disposer afin de me permettre d’élaborer ce travail. 3 Synthèse bibliographique – LAMBERT E. – CEREA/UCO/Angers – GIS « Macrophytes des Eaux continentales » - Comité des Pays de la Loire/ Gestion des plantes exotiques envahissantes – 2è ed. complétée, décembre 2009.

The life of humans is inextricably linked to biodiversity and functioning ecosys- tems. Nevertheless, we are in the process of changing our planet to such an extent that many species and species communities are critically endangered. The intro- duction of new, non-native plant species to established ecosystems is perceived as one of the main threats to global biodiversity: Some of these species may become dominant and lead to novel interactions within ecosystems (plant invasions). Hu- mans are the main driver of plant invasions. In order to better understand the invasion process, not only ecological relationships, but also human motivation be- hind the choice to introduce certain species has to be examined.

  • The Japanese Knotweed Invasion Viewed As a Vast Unintentional Hybridisation Experiment
    Heredity (2013) 110, 105–110 & 2013 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 0018-067X/13 www.nature.com/hdy ORIGINAL ARTICLE The Japanese knotweed invasion viewed as a vast unintentional hybridisation experiment J Bailey 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 between Japanese knotweed and F. baldschuanica (Regel) Holub and hybrids between Japanese knotweed and the Australasian endemics of the genus Muehlenbeckia. In this minireview, the viability of the different classes of hybrid and the potential threats they pose are discussed in the context of recent examples of allopolyploid speciation, which generally involve hybridisation between a native and an alien species. Such wide hybridisations also challenge accepted taxonomic classifications. Japanese knotweed s.l. provides a fascinating example of the interplay between ploidy level, hybridisation and alien plant invasion. The octoploid (2n ¼ 88) Fallopia japonica var. japonica (Houtt.) Ronse Decraene is a single female clone throughout much of its adventive range, and provides an ideal system for investigating the potential for wide hybridisation.

Madrid-Barcelona s/n, E28805 Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, España. ∗ Corresponding author: [email protected] 2 Received: 31/10/16 Accepted: 10/03/17 ABSTRACT Effects of non-native riparian plants in riparian and fluvial ecosystems: a review for the Iberian Peninsula Riparian zones are among the natural habitats more prone to be invaded by exotic plants. In this study we review the causes and consequences of these invasions on fluvial and riparian ecosystems, as well as the effects described for the Iberian Peninsula so far. Riparian zones receive a high propagule pressure of exotic plants, their abiotic conditions are benign for plant life, and their biotic resistance from native vegetation is released by natural (floods) and anthropic (hydrological changes) disturbances. The convergence of these factors explains the high invasion rate of riparian zones. An eventual replacement of native by non- native vegetation might alter the fire regime, the depth of the water table, nutrient cycles and organic matter processing, soil properties, communities of detritivore invertebrates and vertebrates dwelling in rivers and riparian zones. In the Iberian Peninsula we found that the effects of non-native riparian plants were more often negative (e.g. alteration of the structure and activity of microbial communities) than neutral (e.g.

  • Could Fallopia Japonica Be the First Target for Classical Weed Biocontrol in Europe?
    Could Fallopia japonica be the first target for classical weed biocontrol in Europe? D.H. Djeddour,1 R.H. Shaw,1 H.C. Evans,1 R.A. Tanner,1 D. Kurose,2 N. Takahashi2 and M. Seier1 Summary Japanese knotweed, Fallopia japonica (Houtt.) Ronse Decr., (Polygonaceae), is a serious environ- mental and economic weed in its adventive range of Europe and much of North America. Such is the scale of the problem in the UK that a pioneering biocontrol programme began in 2003 which would possibly make it the first target of a full classical biological control of weeds programme in Europe. This paper summarizes the current status of the plant, reviews the literature associated with its natural enemies and reports the progress with the programme for UK sponsors, as well as referring to North American interests. We conclude that, should appropriate permissions be made available, the pros- pects for biological control of this high profile weed, using arthropod andfungal agents, are good. Keywords: Japanese knotweed, classical biological control, Fallopia japonica. Introduction (Houtt.)

  • Mini Data Sheet on Fallopia Baldschuanica
    EPPO, 2012 Mini data sheet on Fallopia baldschuanica Added in 2007 – Deleted in 2012 Reasons for deletion: Fallopia baldschuanica was added to the EPPO Alert List in 2007 and transferred to the List of Invasive Alien Plants in 2012. Why Fallopia baldschuanica (Polygonaceae) is a perennial vine native to Asia. Its common name is “mile- a-minute-vine”, or “Russian vine” in English. The plant has been introduced for ornamental purposes and is still sold as such (first introduced in Spain in 1889). Within the EPPO region, its distribution is still limited. Because this plant has shown invasive behaviour where it has been introduced elsewhere in the world, and is still absent from the EPPO region, it can be considered a new emerging invader in Europe. Geographical distribution EPPO Region: Denmark (not invasive), Ireland (invasive), Germany, Spain (invasive), Italy (invasive), Slovenia (invasive). Asia (native): Afghanistan, China (Tibet), Pakistan (Waziristan in the north-east), Russia (south, Siberia), Tajikistan. North-America (invasive): USA (California, Colorado, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, Utah, Virginia, Washington). Central America: Costa Rica. Note: the species is casual in Belgium. In Slovenia, it is present in the warmer south-western part. Morphology F. baldschuanica is a non rhizomatous perennial vine growing up to 3-10 m. The lower part of climbing stems is woody. Leaves are simple and deciduous, 3-10 x 1-5 cm, ovate-oblong, petiole 1-4 cm, and margin entire or wavy. Terminal inflorescences in dense panicles, 3-15 cm with bisexual flowers, in fascicules of more than 5 flowers, greenish white to pink, 5-8 cm.
