Woody Invasives of the Great Lakes Collaborative.
The information provided through the WIGL Collaborative is intended to give landowners and managers an introduction to the practices that are most frequently used, either alone or in combination, to control woody invaders.

Midwest Invasive Plant Network; Great Lakes Restoration Initiative.
The Woody Invasives of the Great Lakes Collaborative provides information related to woody invasive species identification, distribution, impacts, regulatory status, and control and management. The collaborative has also developed recommendations on trees, shrubs and vines that gardeners and landowners can plant as alternatives to known woody invasives. The WIGL Collaborative was founded in early 2018 and is coordinated by the staff of the Midwest Invasive Plant Network (MIPN).

World Flora Online.
The WFO Plant List is the most comprehensive and authoritative list of the world’s vascular plants (flowering plants, conifers, ferns and their allies) and bryophytes (mosses, hornworts and liverworts), maintained by the global community of taxonomic experts as a free and open access resource. The WFO Plant List was launched in May 2021 as a next generation replacement for The Plant List (not updated since 2013), recognizing the continuing need for a user-friendly, citable static list of all plant species.

What losses would corn and soybean growers experience if they were forced to eliminate herbicides and other control techniques from their weed management toolbox? A team of experts with the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) found that in the U.S. and Canada, about half of both crops would be lost to uncontrolled weeds, costing growers about $43 billion annually.

Wyoming Game and Fish Department.
For more than a decade the Wyoming Game and Fish Department has prioritized keeping aquatic invasive species (AIS) out of the state’s lakes and reservoirs. But, as the threat of zebra mussels and quagga mussels grow, Game and Fish is taking extra precautions to prepare. This spring, the department is rolling out rapid response plans to help act quickly if AIS are discovered, and wants feedback from the public. Game and Fish received public comments until May 16, 2021 on the proposed plans for lakes and reservoirs throughout the state.

The Wyoming Weed Watchlist Field Guide is designed to enhance prevention and early detection efforts of weeds not yet widely established in Wyoming. It was developed by students enrolled in the University of Wyoming's Invasive Plant Ecology course of fall semester 2010. The field guide is not intended as a management handbook, but rather an educational tool for outdoor recreationalists, natural resource professionals, tourists, gardeners, agriculturalists, and others to aid in identification of unfamiliar, yet extremely important, weeds in the region. The highest leverage step in reducing potential impact of new invasive weeds in Wyoming is to detect new populations before they can become well established.
