2 Perennial Dense monocultures Moist soil, partial sunlight Disturbed sites (rivers, roads) Allelopathic biochemicals Displaces native vegetation
3 Very difficult; several years of persistent treatment Large patches Herbicides Foliar application of 1% Habitat or Polaris AQ (Imazapyr) Stems > ½ inch; injection of 100% AquaMaster (glyphosate) Control efficacy Measure of reduced knotweed. Goal is passive reestablishment of native plant assemblages.
4 Study objectives Are knotweed control methods in riparian areas successful in meeting the restoration goal? Do riparian areas previously treated for knotweed have: Native plant assemblages? Similar plant assemblages to areas that never had knotweed (no treatment)?
5
6 Cook R. 7 knotweed sites treated annually: Elk Cook Porter Stony Elk R. 5 knotweed sites Porter R. 11 knotweed sites Treatment methods: 2004 Stem injection with 100% Aquamaster Either stem injection (as above) or foliar spray with 2% Aquamaster & 1% Habitat Foliar spray with 1% Habitat or Polaris AQ Stony R. 12 knotweed sites
7 Satsop River 12 knotweed sites treated annually: Treatment methods: Foliar spray with 1% Habitat or Polaris AQ

EXOTIC & NOT-INVASIVE: 30 forbs, 9 grasses, 1 shrub (dog rose). EXOTIC & INVASIVE: 20 forbs, 1 grass, 4 shrubs.

21 No detectable influence of different control methods: Methods changed over time for all streams (i.e., no time effect). Study not designed to test this specific question. No detectable differences in current plant assemblages among knotweed sites due to: Number of years treated (4-7 year range) Patch size ( m 2 ) Stem count ( stems)
22 removal opens habitat for colonization by both native & exotic plants. often replaced by other invasive plants. Good natural recovery potential of native plants at riparian sites: With established large trees providing canopy cover, No or few other invasives (e.g., reed canarygrass).
23 Reiterate importance of maintaining riparian canopy cover! Prioritize areas for knotweed control or native re-plantings? Post-knotweed removal, monitor & control secondary invasive species (while abundance is low)? Can we control multiple invasive plants at same time? April 2009: TNC planted willow stakes August 2011: Same site, willow growing

25 Ecological reasons why goal may not be achieved: 1. Another underlying driver of ecological change (e.g., altered hydrology), 2. Native species are dispersal limited, not competition limited (e.g., isolated patches of native plants), 3. has altered the habitat & the habitat is inhospitable for native species (e.g., altered soil chemistry, erosion).
