Seasonal Biomass and Carbohydrate Allocation Patterns in Southern Minnesota Curlyleaf Pondweed Populations

Four southern Minnesota populations of curlyleaf pondweed(Potamogeton crispusL.) were sampled monthly fromJanuary 2001 to November 2002 to determine seasonal phenological,biomass, and carbohydrate allocation patterns.Low periods of carbohydrate storage in the seasonal phenologicalcycle indicate potentially vulnerable periods in theplant’s life cycle and may be the ideal time to initiate managementand control efforts.
