Aquatic plants, their uses and risks: a review of the global status of aquatic plants

‘Aquatic plants’ are not specifically mentioned in the text of the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC). Under the framework of the IPPC, however, they are mentioned for the first time in the International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) 1. 2006. Phytosanitary principles for the protection of plants and the application of phytosanitary measures in international trade when a reference to them is made in the scope of the ISPM to indicate that as plants, they are to be protected. This concept was introduced into the revision of ISPM 6:2006.
