Mechanical and chemical control of the invasive cordgrass Spartina densiflora and native plant community responses in an estuarine salt marsh

The south american cordgrass, Spartina densiflora, has in- vaded a wide range of saltmarsh areas in southern spain. a field experiment to examine physical and chemical control of S. densiflora, including mowing, herbicide (glyphosate), mowing plus herbicide combination, and the breaking of rhizomes,...
