The biology of invasive alien plants in Canada. 5. Polygonum cuspidatum Sieb. & Zucc. [=Fallopia japonica (Houtt.) Ronse Decr.]. (2006, background): “Roadsides are a common habitat colonized by P. cuspidatum in North America, with spread being facilitated by roadwork and right-of-way maintenance (Weston et al. 2005).”
Community and ecosystem consequences of giant knotweed (Polygonum sachalinense) invasion into riparian forests of western Washington, USA (2009, background): “Additionally, it produces novel secondary compounds which may contribute to allelopathic or antimicrobial effects (Inoue et al., 1992; Weston et al., 2005).”
Impacts of the invasive plant Fallopia japonica (Houtt.) on plant communities and ecosystem processes (2010, background): “Its growth form is unlike any of the native herbs that it displaces in central Massachusetts, with rhizomes that can penetrate down to 2 m below ground and extend as much as 20 m laterally (Barney et al. 2006; Weston et al. 2005 ).”
