A Systematic Review on the Distribution of Invasive Plant Species Across Asia: Assessing the Rates of Invasion Success and Management

🤖 Plain-English Summary

The advancement of invasive plant species in a particular environment is threatening across Asia. There are already implemented approaches to control these species, where biological control, physical means, and the use of chemicals are the most used strategies.

🔑 Key Findings

• When they are introduced, they could have a variety of different negative effects, either as minor inconveniences or a severe problem.
• The aim of this review is to compile a list of invasive plant species across Asia and organize a set of data according to their reproduction rates, growth rates, dispersal rates, and characterize the allelochemicals they produce and allelopathic effects they have on their environment.
• The target is to know the extent of their spread ability in the area that they inhibit and know what control measures can be done with that specific species.
