It is necessary to first understand what unique characteristics make knotweed such a strong invader in order to ultimately control it. Invasive nonnative plant species have many effects on environments in their adventive ranges. Invasive alien plants reduce the overall fitness and growth of local plant species, decrease plant species abundance and diversity, and decrease animal species fitness and abundance (

). There is currently no research on knotweed pollen viability reported in the literature. Sexual reproduction may not be an important management concern if there is no pollen donor present. On the other hand, if many viable pollen donors are present, then sexual reproduction is a major concern and a priority for management decisions. That is why it is critical that research be conducted on male and female fertility of knotweed.
