Naturalised non-invasive and invasive plant species in aquatic habitats show differing distributions across regions.
Among 592 compiled plant records, 183 unique taxa were identified, with a significant number being invasive species.
The study utilized the SynHab database to analyze macroecological patterns of aquatic plants on a global scale.
Findings imply that warmer regions, particularly tropical Asia, are more susceptible to invasive aquatic plants.

This analysis reveals aquatic invasive species patterns across continents, suggesting tropical regions are more susceptible to invasions.

Kortz et al. (2025) studied this question.
