Research Project:
FOREIGN EXPLORATION IN SOUTHERN CHINA FOR BIOLOGICAL CONTROL OF HYDRILLA IN FLORIDA
Location: IPRL, Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Project Number: 6629-22000-009-55
Project Type:
Reimbursable
Start Date: Aug 01, 2008
End Date: Jun 12, 2009
Objective:
Develop safe and effective biological control agents of Hydrilla in China.
Approach:
Conduct foreign explorations in China and adjacent areas and host testing to identify and prioritize potential agents for biological control. Risk assessment analysis will be conducted in quarantine to determine suitability for safe biological control introductions. Suitability will be determined through feeding/oviposition/developmental trials on related North American plant species.
