The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Management options of invasive Elodea nuttallii and Elodea canadensis (2015, background): “Introduced alien aquatic plant species are known to odify the macrophyte community composition by forming mass evelopments (Stiers et al., 2011; Hussner, 2014).”
Present and future distribution of three aquatic plants taxa across the world: decrease in native and increase in invasive ranges (2017, background): “Nonetheless, as many invasive species, the taxa investigated in this study do not seem to be adversely affected by competition with other species (Stiers et al. 2011; Thouvenot et al. 2013b).”
A success story: water primroses, aquatic plant pests (2013, unknown): “grandiflora reduces native plant richness; for instance, it affects the abundance of Ceratophyllum demersum, Alisma plantago-aquatica and Lycopus europaeus (Stiers et al., 2011), and only a few helophytes such as Typha latifolia, Phragmites australis and Glyceria maxima can compete with water primro”
Development of species-specific environmental DNA (eDNA) markers for invasive aquatic plants (2015, background): “To date, eDNA surveillance efforts have primarily focused on invasive animal species, although invasive plants also have significant ecological and economic impacts around the world, for example, by disrupting ecosystem functioning, reducing wetland biodiversity, interfering with economic processes,”
