Ecophysiology of Invasive Plants: Challenges and Management Approaches
The ecological problems caused through invasive plants have become prominent increasingly in the nature, and the level of environmental risk caused by invasive plants will be enhanced through the rising frequency and intensity of anthropological activities. Currently, invasion as a result of invasive plants has become a major reason of loss of biodiversity. However, further research is needed to illustrate the key mechanisms underlying the successful invasion of the various plants, assess the ecological risks of invasive plants, and identification of the ecological management of invasive plants, as early warning signs as means of prevention system. Nevertheless, it is important to monitor their continuous spread, their entry into new geographic regions, the extent of their effect, and the related changes of evolutionary. While management approaches have to be investigated to control their spread and diminish their adverse effects, the possible use of such invasive plants for pharmacological and agronomic purposes have also to be explored. The aim of this study was to provide a details account of the global distribution, biological, ecological and environmental effects, and methods for the management of the agro-environmental invasive plants.
