SUMMARY:Opportunities for the biological control of European frog-bit in North America
DESCRIPTION:Tune in to hear about the search for a European frog-bit biocontrol agent! Presented by Philip Weyl with CABI Switzerland. \nIn 2024 with funding from U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)\, CABI in Switzerland initiated foreign exploration for natural enemies occurring in the native range of European frog-bit (EFB). EFB is native through much of Europe and parts of temperate Asia as well as North Africa. It was introduced into North America as an ornamental in the early 1930s\, with the initial introduction into Ottawa in Ontario\, Canada thought to originate from the Zurich Botanical Gardens\, Switzerland\, thus Switzerland and surrounding areas were a good place to start to search for a biocontrol agent. During surveys at least two potential biological control agents have been recorded\, a Hydrellia sp. fly and the weevil\, Bagous puncticollis. In addition to this\, water soldier\, Stratiotes aloides\, also introduced in North America (currently only in Canada)\, will be considered during surveys in the native range given the phylogenetic relatedness and geographic overlap with European frog-bit. In this presentation Philip will give an update on the progress made in the first year of surveys and plans going forward. \n\n\n\nRegister here!

SUMMARY:Annual Biocontrol Summit: Aquatic Weed Biocontrol - Project Progress and Innovative Tools
DESCRIPTION:The North American Invasive Species Management Association’s (NAISMA) Biocontrol Summit communicates the latest in classical weed biocontrol research to North American invasive plant managers and educators and aims to connect researchers and on-the-ground practitioners. This year\, the NAISMA Classical Biocontrol Committee is highlighting the role weed biocontrol can play in managing invasive aquatic plant species throughout North America. Our invited aquatic weed management and biocontrol experts will share updates in biocontrol development and innovative tools for improving integrated weed management. \nREGISTER NOW
