“…For example, the biological control agent Ceutorhynchus litura has no impact on fitness of the invader Canada thistle, due to its ability to re-grow from its extensive deep, creeping root system. However, when combined with herbicide or drought stress, the insect significantly suppressed its root growth (Collier et al 2007). Julien et al (1987) reported that the invader Salvinia molesta can compensate damage caused by herbivore Cyrtobagous salviniae only at high levels of nitrogen availability.…”

“…After filling pots with soil, the plastic liner was perforated at the bottom to provide drainage. A similar procedure was successfully used to evaluate the joint impact of herbicides and biological control agents on C. arvense growth (Collier et al 2007).…”

“…Integration of revegetation with weed biological control might be used to 1) enhance the impact of biological control agents, and 2) benefit the establishment of restored plant communities. However, the few studies that have used integrated control methods provide mixed results (Callaway et al 1999;Collier et al 2007), suggesting that interactions of control methods require further study. Plant competition and biological control agents often have independent or additive effects on invasive plant species (Sheppard 1996).…”
